Wordpress get_posts(), how to sort received posts with a specific one?

Question

WordPress

Suppose there is a category with id=123 and in this category I display 5 entries with id=1,2,3,4,5.
How can I form get_posts() to display posts starting from the 3rd, i.e.
{record 3, record 4, record 5, record 1, record 2}
Is it even possible to do this?

And if not, then another question. Is it possible to get the post/record number?

Answer 1

If you mean the order of the posts in the category, then there are no such serial numbers for the posts
When requesting get_posts(), you can use the argument 'orderby' => 'ID'to sort by this field, sorting will work from record 1 or in reverse order from record 5 if you change the 'order'
Id argument can be obtained without problems using the get_the_ID() function in a loop

Answer 2

Well, if the question is only in the order of output, then you can use plugins like "post types order"
