What about this?:
```
$args = array(
    'post__in' => array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 ),
    'orderby' => 'post__in',
);

wpsp_display( 1234, $args );
```

This shows a different selection of posts, definitely not the ones of those 4 ID’s. I can’t really say what the filter is now, but it’s not the latest posts anymore.

Are we sure nothing else is conflicting with the query? Another list on the page? A function using pre_get_posts?

What are the IDs of the posts that are displaying?

Not that I know of…

What are the IDs of the posts that are displaying?

They are apparently still ordered by date but start from the back now, showing the earliest posts.

Let’s try something else.

First, you’ll need to make this change to the core code: https://github.com/tomusborne/wp-show-posts/commit/286caf1164db8b6b6f38b85d3a011b519a27f4de

Then, do this:
```
add_filter( 'wp_show_posts_shortcode_args', function( $args, $settings ) {
    if ( 123 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $args['post__in'] = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );
        $args['orderby'] = 'post__in';
    }

    return $args;
}, 10, 2 );
```

Now it shows nothing. Should I reverse the code change?

No, let’s run with it a bit.

How about this?:
```
add_filter( 'wp_show_posts_shortcode_args', function( $args, $settings ) {
    if ( 123 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $args['post__in'] = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );
    }

    return $args;
}, 10, 2 );
```

Sorry, regarding the last snippet I forgot the wpsp_display part. Now that I added it both again just show the latest posts, no changes.

Hmm, doesn’t sound right.

What’s the debug output if you do this?:
```
add_filter( 'wp_show_posts_shortcode_args', function( $args, $settings ) {
    if ( 123 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $args['post__in'] = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );
    }

    var_dump($args);

    return $args;
}, 10, 2 );
```

My bad, this snippet actually works, I just didn’t realize I had to replace “123”.
```
add_filter( 'wp_show_posts_shortcode_args', function( $args, $settings ) {
    if ( 123 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $args['post__in'] = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );
    }

    return $args;
}, 10, 2 );
```
However, what I still don’t get to work is getting the output of this to display:
```
$scores = get_crp_posts_id();

$rel_posts = array_column( (array) $scores, 'ID' );
```

It’s likely due to how that function is returning the IDs. They need to return in a simple array like the example we created.

Why is this not working then, even tho it gives out the format you said is needed:
```
$scores = get_crp_posts_id();

$rel_posts = array_column( (array) $scores, 'ID' );

$rel_posts_sep = implode(', ', $rel_posts); 

add_filter( 'wp_show_posts_shortcode_args', function( $args, $settings ) {
    if ( 1234 === $settings['list_id'] ) {
        $args['post__in'] = $rel_posts_sep ;
    }

    return $args;
}, 10, 2 );

wpsp_display( 1234, $args );
```
All it does is showing the latest posts again.

Also
```
$scores = get_crp_posts_id();

$rel_posts = array_column( (array) $scores, 'ID' );

print_r( $rel_posts )
```
Gives out the same format as
```
$rel_posts = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );

print_r( $rel_posts )
```
So why would I need to change anything on the format? All I need is to display an array of post IDs with WPSP now or am I missing something?

It’s likely not being output in the exact same format. What’s the result of your print_r?

If the output was the same, it would work the same as when we manually input the numbers.

If the output is multidimensional, has keys and values etc.. it won’t work. It just needs to be a simple array of values: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#post-page-parameters

```
$scores = get_crp_posts_id();

$rel_posts = array_column( (array) $scores, 'ID' );

print_r( $rel_posts )
```
And
```
$rel_posts = array( 305512, 334934, 332645, 334067 );

print_r( $rel_posts )
```
Are both giving out the same:

Array ( [0] => 305512 [1] => 334934 [2] => 332645 [3] => 334067 )

Isn’t that the exact same format? What do I need to change?

I also tried it with wp_list_pluck instead of array_column.
