)

and i want to remove the entry 70

[70] => stdClass Object
                        (
                            [id] => 70
                            [parent_id] => 63
                            [name] => tablas22
                            [order] => 6

but i want the child [58] to be the child of [61] and [70] to be the child of [61]

How should i do that? i tryed unset but it doesn’t seem to be working

Answer 1

$child58 = $array[63]->children[70]->children[58];
unset($array[63]->children[70]->children);

$child70 = $array[63]->children[70];
unset($array[63]->children[70]);

$array[63]->children[61]->children = array(58 => $child58, 70 => $child70);
