So I can't seem to figure out this logic, so I'm reaching out to see if someone might be able to help me.

So I have the following foreach:

echo "Page: " . $page_placement . "/" . $total_pages . "\n\n";

foreach ($posts as $post) {

    $current_post_id = post_exists(

        $post->title->rendered,

        '',

        '',

        '',

        ''

    );

    if ($current_post_id === 0) {

        $my_post = [

            'post_type'     => 'post',

            'post_status'   => 'pending',

            'post_title'    => wp_strip_all_tags($post->title->rendered),

            'post_content'  => wp_strip_all_tags($post->content->rendered),

            'post_excerpt'  => wp_strip_all_tags($post->excerpt->rendered),

            'post_author'   => 1,

            'post_date'     => $post->date,

        ];



        // Insert post.

        $post_id = wp_insert_post($my_post);

        wp_set_object_terms($post_id, 'Global', 'category');

        wp_set_object_terms($post_id, 'Global', 'post_tag');

        echo "ID: " . $post->id . " - Title: " . $post->title->rendered . " has been imported.\n";

    }

}

It grabs 50 $posts and then loops through and calls post_exists() to check the title of the post, and if it doesn't exist, it will import the post otherwise it will skip it.

---

How can I display an echo message if all 50 of the posts aren't imported?

I can't call if (!$current_post_id) { inside the foreach, as it will display the message 50 times and I tried to play an variable outside the foreach and then call $my_post[] = [ .... ] but then the wp_import_post didn't work.

My Answer:
"Starting foreach loop...";

foreach ($array as $item) {
// do something with $item
}

echo "Foreach loop completed.";

if (empty($array)) {
echo "The foreach loop did not return any items.";
} else {
echo "The foreach loop returned items.";
}
