Displaying the most recent element for each custom post-type.

What would I need to display the most recent element for each custom post-type on front-page.php.

I know how to make it display one for each custom post-type, but how does it work for the most recent of each post-type?

Hi Jaimie,

What you have to do is call for the different post types in your $args array that you pass into the WP_Query.

You will just need to change up your code a bit for the post type item in the array. You need to add an array of your post types that you want to call.

<?php

$args = array( 
      'post_type' => array( 'post', 'report', 'opinion', 'bookmark' )
)

?>
