Question

I was wondering if anyone could help me with selecting information from my table, but grouping the results depending on the order id. I’m sure this is quite simple, but I can’t seem to get the code working.

Here’s my attempt – which is only showing 1 result, instead of 6:

• 4 results with orderid 55542
• 2 results with orderid 55543

SQL:

SELECT *
FROM #__users_orders
WHERE userid = 22 
GROUP BY orderid 
ORDER BY date DESC

Any help would be appreciated 🙂

EDIT:

I’d like to acheive this (or something similar)

Answer 1

SELECT *
FROM #__users_orders
WHERE userid = 22 
ORDER BY orderid DESC

Just select your items like this and create your object/array hierarchy in the frontend by iterating over the results and creating a new array for every new orderid that comes by.
