I have a query like this i will get the id's for product. This works fine:



function ids()
$args = array(
'numberposts' => -1,
'post_type' => 'product',
'meta_key' => 'wppl_is_dax',
'meta_value' => '1'
);


// query
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );


if( $the_query->have_posts() ): while( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
global $product;
return $product->get_id();
endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query();




But now i want to use the output from the above query in the below



function tester2()

$targetted_products = array(/* the ids from above function- ids()*/);




I am only getting one id if i use
$targetted_products =array(ids());

          Your function returns $product->get_id();, instead of that, you should save those values into an array and at the end return that array.



          function ids()
          $args = array(
          'numberposts' => -1,
          'post_type' => 'product',
          'meta_key' => 'wppl_is_dax',
          'meta_value' => '1'
          );


          // query
          $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
          $allIds = array();

          if( $the_query->have_posts() ): while( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
          global $product;
          array_push($allIds,$product->get_id());
          endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query();
          return $allIds;

            If you only want IDs, the query will consume much less memory if you use the fields parameter to just get that one field back in an array:



            function ids()
            $args = array(
            'numberposts' => -1,
            'post_type' => 'product',
            'meta_key' => 'wppl_is_dax',
            'meta_value' => '1'
            'fields' => 'ids'
            );
            $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
            if( $the_query->have_posts() )
            return $the_query->posts;

            return false;

                      If you only want IDs, the query will consume much less memory if you use the fields parameter to just get that one field back in an array:



                      function ids()
                      $args = array(
                      'numberposts' => -1,
                      'post_type' => 'product',
                      'meta_key' => 'wppl_is_dax',
                      'meta_value' => '1'
                      'fields' => 'ids'
                      );
                      $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
                      if( $the_query->have_posts() )
                      return $the_query->posts;

                      return false;
