How do I remain the image when I update edit form? - php

Question

I can update image on my application but if I have to update same picture again and again when I click edit button on edit section...so I want to remain current image when I update edit section without any change for image.
I tried to put these codes below but it didn't work....
if(empty($image)){
$selected_image = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM posts WHERE post_id={$the_post_id}");
$selected_image->execute(array($the_post_id));
$selected_images = $selected_image->fetch();
}
Does anyone give some advise or concern for my codes?
I really appreciate!
Thank you!

$posted_p = $posted->fetch();

Answer 1

you should update your query so it sets post_image only if $_FILES['image'] it exists
this should work:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['edit_post'])){
$image = $_FILES['image'] ? date('YmdHis') . $_FILES['image']['name'] : "";
$edit_posts = $db->prepare(
"UPDATE posts SET post_contents=?". empty($image) ?: ", post_image=?" ."WHERE post_id ='{$the_post_id}' "
);
$params = array(
$_POST['post_contents']
);
if (!empty($image)) {
$params[] = $image;
}
$edit_posts->execute($params);
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], './images/' . $image);
if(empty($image)){
$selected_image = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM posts WHERE post_id={$the_post_id}");
$selected_image->execute(array($the_post_id));
$selected_images = $selected_image->fetch();
}
header('Location: index.php');
exit();
}
?>
