Currently I am working on a project in Laravel but I am stuck.I want to create a SQL statement like this:
SELECT * FROM SPITems WHERE publisher_id=? AND feed_id=? AND (title LIKE '%?%' OR description LIKE '%?%')
Now I have this code:
$query = SPItem::orderBy('title'); if(isset($_GET['publisherID']) && is_numeric($_GET['publisherID'])) { $query = $query->where('publisher_id', $_GET['publisherID']); } if(isset($_GET['productFeedID']) && is_numeric($_GET['productFeedID'])) { $query = $query->where('program_id', $_GET['feedID']); } if(isset($_GET['search'])) { $query = $query->orWhere('title', 'like', '%' . $_GET['search'] . '%'); $query = $query->where('description', 'like', '%' . $_GET['search'] . '%'); }
But that generates:
SELECT * FROM SPITems WHERE (publisher_id=? AND feed_id=?) OR (title LIKE '%?%') AND description LIKE '%?%'
How can I get the correct “or” order?

Check out the Logical Grouping section in the docs:
https://laravel.com/docs/master/queries#logical-grouping
It explains how to group conditions in the WHERE clause.
It should be something like:
if(isset($_GET['search'])) { $query->where(function($query){ $query->where('title', 'like', '%' . $_GET['search'] . '%') ->orWhere('description', 'like', '%' . $_GET['search'] . '%'); }); }
