Can't update data to database with codeigniter - php

Question

I'm having trouble updating the data in the database with codeigniter. This is my controller :
public function update_mission_vision($id)
{
$this->securePage();
$data['mission'] = $mission = $this->about_model->get_mission_vision($id);
if ($mission == false) {
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', 'The mission does not exist.');
redirect('about/manage-miteri-mission-vision');
} else {
if ($this->input->post('submit')) {
$this->form_validation->set_rules('title', 'title', 'required|max_length[240]');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('details', 'details', 'required|max_length[240]');
if ($this->form_validation->run()) {
$added_on = time();
$this->about_model->update_mission_vision($added_on, $id);
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', 'mission updated successfully.');
redirect('about/manage-miteri-mission-vision');
}
}
}
$data['title'] = "$mission->title | miteripkr.com";
$data['keywords'] = "$mission->title";
$data['content'] = $this->load->view('about-us/update_mission_vision', $data, true);
$this->load->view('miteri', $data);
}
And this is my models :
function get_all_mission_vision($limit = null, $offset = null)
{
if ($limit)
{
$this->db->limit($limit. $offset);
}
return $this->db->get('mission_vision');
}
function get_mission_vision($id)
{
$this->db->where('id', $id);
$query = $this->db->get('mission_vision');
if ($query->num_rows()) {
return $query->row();
} else {
return false;
}
}
function update_mission_vision($id, $added_on)
{
$this->db->where('id', $id);
$this->db->set('title', $this->input->post('title'));
$this->db->set('details', $this->input->post('details'));
$this->db->set('added_on', $added_on);
$this->db->update('mission_vision');
}
This is my view :
<**div class="container-fluid" style="background:#fff; margin-top:10px; border-radius:5px; min-height:600px; margin-bottom:10px;">
<form action="" method="post" style="margin-top:30px;">
<?php echo $this->session->flashdata('msg');?>
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li>admin</li>
<li>about us</li>
<li class="active">update mission & vision</li>
</ol>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="title"> Title for Post</label>
<input class="form-control" type="text" name="title" placeholder="Enter Title" value="<?php echo set_value('title', $mission->title)?>">
<?php echo form_error('title');?>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="title"> Details for Post</label>
<textarea class="ckeditor" name="details" placeholder="Enter Details" style="height:200px;"><?php echo set_value('details', $mission->details); ?></textarea>
<?php echo form_error('details');?>
</div>
<button class="btn btn-success" name="submit" type="submit" value="update"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok"> update</span></button>
</form>
</div>
It even prints a success message but my data is not updated, why?

Answer 1

Maybe it's the call of the function update_mission_vision. You switched $id and $added_on.
And of course, like #Kamran Adil said, you have to give the post data to your model.
Update:
Here is an example how i write my update function in a model. So you can have look and make your own update function.
/**
* #name string TABLE_NAME Holds the name of the table in use by this model
*/
const TABLE_NAME = 'table';
/**
* #name string PRI_INDEX Holds the name of the tables' primary index used in this model
*/
const PRI_INDEX = 'field';
/**
* Updates selected record in the database
*
* #param Array $data Associative array field_name=>value to be updated
* #param Array $where Optional. Associative array field_name=>value, for where condition. If specified, $id is not used
* #return int Number of affected rows by the update query
*/
public function update(Array $data, $where = array()) {
if (!is_array($where)) {
$where = array(self::PRI_INDEX => $where);
}
$this->db->update(self::TABLE_NAME, $data, $where);
return $this->db->affected_rows();
}

Maybe you lost the $id in your URL.
Put a hidden input in your view with the $id, then in the controller, asign this $id = $this->input->post('id'); to get the $id. And the delete $id in your controller update_mission_vision() {
