Wordpress posts not pulling content - php

Question

This is my code (below) I am attempting to pull posts only from category id 4 and It is working however it is not pulling the post content. It is displaying everything else.
Can anyone help me with this?
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="fixed">
<?php
echo '<div class="row fixed">';
echo '<div class="col580 no-print">';
global $post;
$myposts = get_posts('category=4');
foreach($myposts as $post) :
?>
<div class="post-item">
<?php
$src = null;
$count = 0;
$readmorelabel = get_option(EWF_SETUP_THNAME."_blog_read_more", __('— Read More', EWF_SETUP_THEME_DOMAIN));
$count++;
//## Get post classes
//##
$post_class = get_post_class();
$post_class_fin = null;
foreach($post_class as $key=> $ctclass){
$post_class_fin.= ' '.$ctclass;
}
//## Get post categories
//##
get_the_category( $post->ID );
$post_categories = null;
foreach((get_the_category( $post->ID )) as $category) {
if ($post_categories == null){
$post_categories.= '<a href="'.get_category_link( $category->term_id ).'" >'.$category->cat_name.'</a>';
}else{
$post_categories.= ', <a href="'.get_category_link( $category->term_id ).'" >'.$category->cat_name.'</a>';
}
}
//## Get post featured image
//##
$image_id = get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID);
$image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src($image_id,'blog-featured-image');
$src .= '<div class="blog-post '.$post_class_fin.'">';
$src .= '<div class="blog-post-date">'.get_the_time('d').' <span>'.get_the_time('M Y').'</span></div>' ;
$src .= '<h3 class="blog-post-title">'.get_the_title($post->ID).'</h3>' ;
$src .= '<ul class="blog-post-info fixed">
<li class="categories">'.$post_categories.'</li>
<li class="comments">'.get_comments_number().' '.__('Comments', EWF_SETUP_THEME_DOMAIN).'</li>
</ul>';
if ($image_id){
$src .= '<div><img class="blog-post-thumb" src="'.$image_url[0].'" width="480" height="200" alt="" /></div>';
}
global $more;
$more = false;
$src .= '<p>'.do_shortcode(get_the_content(' ')).'</p>';
$more = true;
$src .= '<div class="fixed"><p class="blog-post-readmore">'.$readmorelabel.'</p></div>';
if ($wp_query_blog->post_count != $count ){
$src .= '<div class="hr"></div>';
}

}
echo $src;
?>
</div>
<?php comments_template(); ?>
<?php endforeach; wp_reset_postdata();

echo '<div class="col280 last">';
if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('sidebar-page') );
echo '</div>';
echo '</div>';

You are using get_posts() so you can easily get the post content by using post_content.
I see you use are using this
global $post;
$myposts = get_posts('category=4');
foreach($myposts as $post) :
Please avoid using global variables as local variables, by doing so you might change its value and you might face some issue later, rather do something as below
global $post;
$myposts = get_posts('category=4');
foreach($myposts as $mypost) :
and after this you can easily get the details of each post inside the for each loop for example
global $post;
$myposts = get_posts('category=4');
foreach($myposts as $mypost) :
echo $mypost->post_title; // This gives you the post title
echo $mypost->post_content; // This gives you the post content
endforeach;
You can try and take a reference from the above and try with your code.
Base line: if you are using get_posts() you can get the content of the post from $variable->post_content;
Hope it helps!!!
