Relationship Field Empty

Hi,

I was using the relationship field for a slider. The code is working when selecting posts to show in the slider and if I empty the relationship field, it will display all latest posts in the site.

I’m also using WP_Query arguments to run the field. All I need now is a code to not display a posts if the field is empty.

Here’s sample code I used.

<?php $ids = get_field('featured_posts', 'options', false, false);
			$query = new WP_Query(array(
				'post_type'      	=> 'post',
				'posts_per_page'	=> 5,
				'post__in'		=> $ids,
			));
			if ( $query->have_posts() ): ?>
			<ul class="slides">
			<?php while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); // variable must NOT be called $post (IMPORTANT) ?>
				<li>loop here</li>
			<?php endwhile; ?>
			</ul>
			<?php wp_reset_postdata(); // IMPORTANT - reset the $post object so the rest of the page works correctly ?>
		<?php endif; ?>

Warm regards,
Dodzki

FIXED! A friend help me. Here’s an update.

<?php if( $ids = get_field('featured_posts', 'options', false, false) ) :
			$query = new WP_Query(array(
				'post_type'      	=> 'post',
				'posts_per_page'	=> 5,
				'post__in'		=> $ids,
				'post_status' => 'publish',
			));
			if ( $query->have_posts() ) : ?>
			<div class="">
				<ul class="slides">
				<?php while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); // variable must NOT be called $post (IMPORTANT) ?>
					<li>Loop here</li>
				<?php endwhile; wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
				</ul>
			</div>
			<div class="fix"></div>
			<?php else : ?>
			<?php endif; endif; ?>
