Hi,

I'm trying to pull in posts which the current user has created from a post type using the post_name table either with an array or a wildcard. This is what I've got so far.

It's pulling in every post from that user we just want to pull in certain posts.

We'd rather use a wildcard which picks up any post_name which includes challenge-video otherwise an array would work too.

Any help would be much appreciated

```
{% set name_array = [showreel-6, promotional-video-3] %}
{% set value = mb.custom_function( name_array ) %}
{% set args = {post_type: "sfwd-essays", name: name_array, author: user.ID, post_status: "graded", posts_per_page: 10 } %}
{% set posts = mb.get_posts( args ) %}
Hi {{ user.first_name }}, Here's your video submissions!
{% for post in posts %}
<br>
<a href="{{ mb.get_permalink( post.ID ) }}" target="_blank" rel="noopener">{{ post.post_title }} {{( post.ID )}}</a>
{% endfor %}
```
