Question

$category = get_option('category');

// checks to see if subcategory is enabled in the option page  
if ( get_option('enable_subcategory') == 'y' ):   

  $subcategory = get_option('subcategory');

endif;

$qry = mysql_query("SELECT car,number FROM ".$table." 
                    WHERE category = '$category' AND subcategory = '$subcategory' 
                    ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 20");

How can i write the $qry so the ” AND subcategory = ‘$subcategory’ ” will disappear if subcategory option isn’t enable?

Answer 1

Added $subSql var:

<?

  $category = get_option('category');

  if ( get_option('enable_subcategory') == 'y' ):   // checks to see if subcategory is enabled in the option page  

  $subcategory = get_option('subcategory');
  $subSql = "AND subcategory = '$subcategory'";

  endif;

  $qry = mysql_query("SELECT car,number FROM ".$table." WHERE category = '$category' $subSql ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 20");

?>
