Question

I have following query, to fetch the events .

SELECT 
  * 
FROM
  events_table 
WHERE event_date > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
ORDER BY event_status ASC,
  event_date ASC 

All I want to do is return all rows whose event_date is today

Where I m going wrong?
Thanks for help

Answer 1

How about this in your where clause:

WHERE DATE(event_date) = DATE(NOW())

And another option that wouldn’t prevent using an index on event_date:

WHERE event_date BETWEEN CURDATE() AND DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
