get_posts('numberposts=5&category=93+85')get_posts('numberposts=5&category=9385')
Is there a way to have get_posts grab only posts that are in BOTH categories, as above?

Use WP_Query's category__and:
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'category__and' => array( 93, 85 )
);
$my_query = new WP_Query( $args );
while( $my_query->have_posts() ):
$my_query->the_post();
the_title();
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();

Where would that go in a situation like this? <?php global $post; $myposts = get_posts('numberposts=5&category=1'); foreach($myposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?>– SalCommented Mar 6, 2013 at 21:54

Hmm. Perhaps I mislead. I'm trying to only get posts that are in both categories at the same time. Category__and doesn't do that, no?– SalCommented Mar 6, 2013 at 22:09

it does, category__in fetches posts that are in one category OR another, category__and fetches posts that have both categories.– MiloCommented Mar 6, 2013 at 22:32

Ah, alright. So now, and I apologize as I'm not too keen on PHP what would I replace this with:
<?php global $post; $myposts = get_posts('numberposts=5&category=30'); foreach($myposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?> <?php if ( in_category('1') ) { ?> <?php include('sidebar-reviews_review.php'); ?> <?php } ?>To make it pull posts from categories 30 and 1.– SalCommented Mar 6, 2013 at 22:35
