[wp-testers] can't query/get posts of custom post type using category argument

[Matt Richmond]

I'm able to get posts in a custom post type of "FAQ" and with a
category name of "bike", as in the code below.

The only real difference I made to your code was to remove the
'post_parent' restriction, and referenced the global $post before my
loop.

	$args = array(
		'post_type' => 'FAQ',
		'category_name' => 'bike',
		'numberposts' => -1,
		'post_status' => null,
		);
	$members = get_posts($args);
	
	global $post;
	foreach ($members as $post) {
		setup_postdata($post);
		the_title();
		echo '<hr />';
	}
