multiple where condition codeigniter

you can try this function for multi-purpose

function ManageData($table_name='',$condition=array(),$udata=array(),$is_insert=false){
$resultArr = array();
$ci = & get_instance();
if($condition && count($condition))
    $ci->db->where($condition);
if($is_insert)
{
    $ci->db->insert($table_name,$udata);
    return 0;
}
else
{
    $ci->db->update($table_name,$udata);
    return 1;
}

}

Yes, multiple calls to where() is a perfectly valid way to achieve this.

$this->db->where('username',$username);
$this->db->where('status',$status);

http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/database/query_builder.html

$wherecond = "( ( ( username ='" . $username . "' OR status='" . $status . "') AND (id='" . $id . "') ) )"; $this->db->where($wherecond);

If you want to add AND and OR conditions at a time. this will work.

you can use an array and pass the array.

Associative array method:
$array = array('name' => $name, 'title' => $title, 'status' => $status);

$this->db->where($array); 

// Produces: WHERE name = 'Joe' AND title = 'boss' AND status = 'active'

Or if you want to do something other than = comparison

$array = array('name !=' => $name, 'id <' => $id, 'date >' => $date);

$this->db->where($array);
