Proper way to get page content

Question

I have to get specific page content (like page(12))

I used that :

  post_content;  ?>
         


        

Answer 1

A simple, fast way to get the content by id :

echo get_post_field('post_content', $id);

And if you want to get the content formatted :

echo apply_filters('the_content', get_post_field('post_content', $id));

Works with pages, posts & custom posts.
