Question

I do a sql query that checks if a row is present … if there is the tuple I do INSERT INTO Setting else UPDATE. UserID is the primary key. I wanted to try to do it directly in a single query in php … is it possible? I can somehow use the command not exist?

enter code here

$query = 'INSERT INTO Settings SET
             userID = '.$uid.',
      visibility = -1,
      notify_icon = true,
      notify_connect_friend = true,
      notify_near_friend = true,
      ringer = true,
      vibration = true
  ';
$query = 'UPDATE Settings SET
      visibility = '.$visibility.',
      notify_icon = '.$notify_icon.',
      notify_connect_friend = '.$notify_connect_friend.',
      notify_near_friend = '.$notify_near_friend.',
      ringer = '.$ringer.',
      vibration = '.$vibration.'
   WHERE
      userID = '.$uid.'
  ';
