Question

I am trying to select all from stuff and count the total amount of items in morestuff where stuff id = morestuff id.

select *,
    COUNT(morestuff.items) as total
from stuff,
    morestuff
where stuff.id = '{$id}'
    and morestuff.id = stuff.id

Obviously there is something wrong with my query, can anyone help?

This may be another option:

select
  *, (
    select count(*)
    from morestuff
    where morestuff.id = stuff.id
      ) as total
from stuff
where id = '{$id}'
