Question

Each modx_site_content record may have several records in modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues.

I need to retrieve both modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues.value where the tvv.tmplvarid = 3 AND the tvv.tmplvarid = 1. where tvv.tmplvarid is a future date, I need to return the tvv.value of tvv.tmplvarid 3 which is a comma separated list of tags.

This query does not return the values I need & I’m not sure how to get just what I want.

SELECT sc.id, sc.pagetitle, tvv.value, tvv.tmplvarid, tvv.id, tvv.value
FROM modx_site_content sc
left join modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues tvv on tvv.contentid = sc.id
where published = '1' 
and (tvv.tmplvarid = '3' and tvv.value >= curdate())
order by sc.id;

basically in the end I need to return only the list of tags (tvv.tmplvarid = 3) where the other associated record (tvv.tmplvarid = 1) is a date in the future.

Any thoughts, can this be done with grouping instead? I don’t actually need anything from the modx_site_content table.

Answer 1

So you need to return the tags both rows in the modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues table that has tmplvarid of 1 and 3 both related to the same modx_site_content, but only when the tmplvarid 3 row has a datetime field in the future?

I would do two separate joins to the modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues tabe:

SELECT tOne.value, tThree.value
FROM modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues tOne
INNER JOIN modx_site_content c ON tOne.contentid = c.id
INNER JOIN modx_site_tmplvar_contentvalues tThree ON tThree.contentid = c.id
WHERE c.published = 1
AND tOne.tmplvarid = 1 
AND tThree.tmplvarid = 3 AND tThree.date > NOW()
