Detect if post or page

  • How to detect in db query whether I got a post or page?

    $result = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT comment_count,ID,post_title FROM $wpdb->posts ORDER BY comment_count DESC LIMIT 0 , 5");

    Here I get popular posts, but I get “About” page also.

    foreach ($result as $post) {
 setup_postdata($post);
 // do some stuff
}

    So, I would like to check whether $post is page, if it is , then just jump it, or somehow to change query – to ignore pages, e.g. “AND NOT page” ??

    foreach ($result as $post) {
echo $post->post_type;
echo $post->post_status;
