Wordpress get multiple posts by id

Question

I need to get multiple posts in wordpress by ID.

get_posts('p=34,36');

I assumed that that might work, but it only gives the first post.

I tried then to use an array:

$args = array( 'p' => array(34,36));

That delivered no results.

get_posts('p=34+36'); NO and get_posts('p=34&p=36'); Last one only

Any ideas?

Answer 1

$args = array( 'post__in' => array(34,36) );
