[wp-testers] possible bug in get_posts

[michael at mfields.org]

I don't think that there is a bug in core. Your code looks a bit off to me
though. Please try the following:

$movies = get_posts( array(
	'numberposts' => '-1',
	'post_type'   => 'movies',
	) );

/* Backup global $post object !IMPORTANT! */
$_post_backup = $post;

foreach( (array) $movies as $post ) {
	setup_postdata( $post );
	print '<li><a href=' . get_permalink() . ' title="' .
sprintf(esc_attr__('Permalink to %s'), the_title_attribute('echo=0')) .
'" rel="bookmark">' . get_the_title() . '</a></li>';
}

/* Restore global $post object !IMPORTANT! */
$post = $_post_backup;

Best wishes,
-Mike
