$artists = [

"plan_id" => "1",
"name" => "Artist-B",
"views" => "1",
"soundcloud" => 0,
"facebook" => 0,
"twitter" => 0,
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => 0
],
2 => [
"id" => "2",
"plan_id" => "1",

"soundcloud" => "7",
"facebook" => "104449606",

4 => [
"id" => "5",
"plan_id" => "2",
"name" => "Artist-E",
"views" => "98765432",
"soundcloud" => "13",
"facebook" => "59551072",
"twitter" => "38995648",
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => "64997436"
]
]
foreach ($remaining_artists as $key => $value) {
$soundcloud[$key] = $value['soundcloud'];
}
array_multisort($soundcloud, SORT_ASC, $artists);
I use array_multisort to sort array. It's working perfectly fine. But there is an error 'array_multisort(): Array sizes are inconsistent' for the above array. I really can't figure out what's the problem here and its solution.

Answer 1

Your array_multisort() parameters were out of order.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-multisort.php
Also, syntax problems.
This works
<?php
$artists = [
0 => [
"id" => "3",
"plan_id" => "1",
"name" => "Artist-A",
"views" => "1189189",
"soundcloud" => "42",
"facebook" => "59881948",
"twitter" => "21760757",
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => "3429017"
],
1 => [
"id" => "10",
"plan_id" => "1",
"name" => "Artist-B",
"views" => "1",
"soundcloud" => 0,
"facebook" => 0,
"twitter" => 0,
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => 0
],
2 => [
"id" => "2",
"plan_id" => "1",
"name" => "Artist-C",
"views" => "1629",
"soundcloud" => "20",
"facebook" => "5025158",
"twitter" => "582899",
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => "112127"
],
3 => [
"id" => "4",
"plan_id" => "2",
"name" => "Artist-D",
"views" => "484353",
"soundcloud" => "7",
"facebook" => "104449606",
"twitter" => "36820201",
"youtube" => 0,
"instagram" => "16483226"
],
4 => [
"id" => "5",
"plan_id" => "2",
"name" => "Artist-E",
"views" => "98765432",
"soundcloud" => "13",
"facebook" => "59551072",
"twitter" => "38995648",

];
$soundcloud = [];
foreach ($artists as $key => $value) {
$soundcloud[$key] = $value['soundcloud'];
}
array_multisort($soundcloud, $artists, SORT_ASC);
print_r($artists);
