Tough Mysql Query

Recommended Posts

Ok, here's my current query:

 

SELECT p.arc_pid, p.arc_pname, p.arc_pdescription, p.arc_pprice, p.arc_pbuylink, i.arc_ilink, c.arc_cid, c.arc_cname FROM arc_products AS p LEFT JOIN arc_images AS i ON p.arc_pid=i.arc_pid LEFT JOIN arc_categories AS c ON p.arc_pcategory=c.arc_cid WHERE arc_pactive='1' ORDER BY arc_cid ASC, arc_pname ASC

 

What I want is to sort where arc_cid='1' then sort the rest by arc_pname ASC. I'm sure I'll have to use a case, but I'm just not sure.

I figured it out after playing around.

 

SELECT p.arc_pid, p.arc_pname, p.arc_pdescription, p.arc_pprice, p.arc_pbuylink, i.arc_ilink, c.arc_cid, c.arc_cname FROM arc_products AS p LEFT JOIN arc_images AS i ON p.arc_pid=i.arc_pid LEFT JOIN arc_categories AS c ON p.arc_pcategory=c.arc_cid WHERE arc_pactive='1' ORDER BY FIELD(arc_cid, '1') DESC, arc_pname ASC
