post__not_in only excluding first post in array
- by fightstarr20
I am using two query_posts loops to firstly display a set of posts with a custom field of '2012' and then the second loop to display everything else excluding the posts it returned in the first...
<?php
if( get_query_var('paged') < 2 ) { ?>
<?php
query_posts( array(
'post_type' => 'project',
'meta_key' => 'start_date_year',
'meta_value' => '2012'
));
$ids = array();
?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<p>This is from Loop 1 - <?php the_title(); ?> - <?php the_id(); ?></p>
<?php $ids[] = get_the_ID(); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php
$paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
query_posts( array(
'post_type' => 'project',
'post__not_in' => $ids,
'orderby' => title,
'order' => ASC,
'paged' => $paged
));
?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<p>This is from Loop 2 - <?php the_title(); ?> - <?php the_id(); ?></p>
<?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php pagination(); ?>
For some reason the 'post__not_in' = $ids is only excluding the first post ID in the array, I have print_r the array and it does contain all of the post IDs I want to exlcude.
Anyone any ideas why only one ID is being excluded?
