I have some model for searching like this,
public function get_products_by_keyword($keyword) {
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->from('item');
$this->db->like('item_name',$keyword);
$this->db->where('item_product_type', 'watches');
return $this->db->get()->result();
}
item_product_type list: watches, building, aksesoris, eyeware, promo
in the database, I have 5 item_product_type
but I want to show just 3 categories, how to do that in CodeIgniter?
You can use where_in to pass three type lists
$this->db->where_in('item_product_type', ["watches", "building", "aksesoris"]);
