Ok so within the past month i have been learning the MVC model but I am stuck on something which i’m sure is super simple but i’m unable to figure it out for some reason.
Basically,right now im doing a foreach and im echoing all the products which works great but what i want to do in the right hand corner is get the name of the category it belongs to so if in the item table cat_id = 1 then echo ‘PHP Scripts’ from the category table but i don’t know why but im stuck so all help much appreciated.
Here is my view code:
<?php if($data['isProducts']) { foreach($data['products'] as $product) : ?>
<div class="col-lg-4 col-md-4 col-sm-6 mb-3">
<div class="card h-100 shadow-1 rounded-0">
<a href="<?php echo FULL_ROOT;?>/item/<?php echo $product['id']; ?>/">
<img class="card-img-top rounded-0" src="<?php echo FULL_ROOT;?>/uploads/items/<?php echo $product['id']; ?>/<?php echo $product['preview_img']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>">
</a>
<div class="card-body text-center">
<a href="<?php echo FULL_ROOT;?>/item/<?php echo $product['id']; ?>/"><h2 class="card-title font-weight-bold f-18"><?php echo $product['name']; ?></h2></a>
<div class="clearfix">
<a data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Add to Wishlist" href="#" class="btn btn-sm btn-light btn-lightb float-left mr-1"><i class="far fa-heart"></i></a>
<a data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Live Preview" href="<?php echo $product['demo']; ?>" target="_blank" class="btn btn-sm btn-light btn-lightb float-left"><i class="fas fa-desktop"></i></a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="card-footer bg-white">
<div class="clearfix">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-sm btn-light float-left btn-lightb">
<!-- get name from cat table based on id --> <?php echo $product['cat_id']; ?>
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-sm btn-light float-right btn-lightb">
<?php echo $data['settings']['payment_currency_sym'].$product['price']; ?>
</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; } else { ?>
<div class="col-12">
<div class="alert alert-primary shadow-1 rounded-0" role="alert">
<b><i class="fas fa-info-circle"></i> No Items Available!</b>
</div>
</div>
<?php } ?>
Here is my controller code:
public function profile($user_id = '')
{
$this->item = $this->model('Items');
$sdata = $this->setting->getAll();
// Check if empty
if($user_id == '') { redirect(''); }
$udata = $this->user->getUserByUsername($user_id); // Gets user data
$pdata = $this->user->getUserProducts($udata['id']); //Gets products based on user id
// $prodCategory = $this->item->getItemsCatName(); some how get category name for each product
if(is_array($pdata[0]) ) {
$isProducts = true;
} else {
$isProducts = false;
}
$data = array(
"user" => $udata,
"products" => $pdata,
"isProducts" => $isProducts,
"prodCategory" => $prodCategory,
"settings" => $sdata
);
// Checks if no data found (404)
if($udata == false) { redirect('error'); }
// Load view
$this->view('marketplace/user/profile', $data);
}
Here is my model code:
public function getUserByUsername($user_id)
{
$bind = [':username' => $user_id];
$results = $this->db->select('msi_users','status = 1 AND username = :username', $bind);
return $results;
}
public function getUserProducts($user_id)
{
$bind = [':username' => $user_id];
$results = $this->db->select('msi_items','status = 1 AND author_id = :username', $bind);
if(!is_array($results[0])) {
$new_results = array();
array_push($new_results, $results);
return $new_results;
} else {
return $results;
}
}
now im unsure what code to do to get the name, here is what i have currently but i’m clearly being dum so someone else php expertise would be helpful thanks
public function getItemsCatName($id)
{
$bind = [':id' => $id];
$results = $this->db->select('msi_itemscat','status = 1 AND id = :id', $bind);
return $results;
}
Thanks again
