Question

I have two functions in my model. First one:

    public function updateOwn($game,$own,$user) {

    $data = array(
        'own' => $own
    );

    $q = $this->db->where(array(
        'game' => $game,
        'user' => $user
    ));

    $q = $this->db->update('ownership',$data);

    if($q) { return true; } else { return false; }
}

and the secound one:

    public function updateRate($game,$rate,$user) {

    $data = array(
        'rate' => $rate
    );

    $q = $this->db->where(array(
        'game' => $game,
        'user' => $user
    ));

    $q = $this->db->update('rates',$data);
    $q = $this->db->update('ownership',$data);

    if($q) { return true; } else { return false; }
}

The problem is, first one is working, secound one isn’t. I mean, it works, but it updates every row, not just those with matching game and user. Variables are passed fine.

Answer 1

The where condition is only applied to the first update statement. Try below.

$data = array(
    'rate' => $rate
);

$where = array(
    'game' => $game,
    'user' => $user
);

$q = $this->db->update('rates', $data, $where);
$q = $this->db->update('ownership', $data, $where);
