Question

I’m new to CakePHP and I’ve tried searching but I can’t find an answer to this question.

To put it simply, I want the query to be something like this:

SELECT id from posts WHERE id IN (15,18,20);

But I don’t know what to put in the find() call.

Answer 1

From the model it would be something like:

$ids   = array(15, 18, 20);
$posts = $this->find('all', array(
    'conditions'  => array(
        'Post.id' => $ids
     )
);

in the conditions array, you can pass an array of values to be used in the ‘IN’ clause
