Question

i've got an error saying "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use" i'm still new to codeigniter and i really need help currently this is the code that i've been trying to apply

function save() {

        $reporter=$this->Settings_m->greporter();
        $jabrik=$this->Settings_m->gjabrik();
        $redpel=$this->Settings_m->gredpel();

        $usertxt="";
        if (in_array($this->session->userdata('ugroup'), $reporter )) {
            $usertxt=",reporter=".$this->user.",reporter_time=now()";
        }
        if (in_array($this->session->userdata('ugroup'), $jabrik )) {
            $usertxt=",jabrik=".$this->user.",jabrik_time=now()";
        }
        if (in_array($this->session->userdata('ugroup'), $redpel )) {
            $usertxt=",redpel=".$this->user.",redpel_time=now()";
        }

        /* end for usertxt call */

        if($this->input->post('pub') == 1){
            if($this->input->post('tglpub') == "0000-00-00 00:00:00" || $this->input->post('tglpub') == ""){
                $tgl=",publish_up=now()";
            }else{
                //$tgl = $this->input->post('tglpub');
                $tgl = ",publish_up='".$this->input->post('tglpub')."'";
            }
        }else{
            $tgl=",publish_up=''";
        }

        $title =str_replace('"',"'",$this->input->post('title'));

        $query=" insert gis_news_items set "
              .' title="' .$title.'"'
              .",alias='" . $this->input->post('alias',true )."'"
              .",introtext='". $this->input->post('content')."'"
              .",fulltexts=' '"
              .",catid=".$this->input->post('catid')
              .",published=".$this->input->post('pub')
              // .",hl=".$this->input->post('hl')
              // .",focus=".$this->input->post('fcs')
              // .",byline=".$byline
              .$usertxt 
              .",modified_by=" . $this->user 
              // .",publish_up='" .$this->input->post('tglpub')."'"
              .$tgl
              .',metadesc="' . str_replace('"',"'", $this->input->post('deskripsi',true)  )   .'"'
              .',metakey="' . str_replace('"',"'", $this->input->post('keyword',true)  )      .'"' ;
        $this->M_general->add_data("gis_news_items", $query);      

    }

edit
this is the data that i got from the query i ran, i tried to tweak it using the suggestions here as reference but i still got the error, so i undo it to see the error

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'insert into gis_news_items values ( title="sepatu nike 5m",alias='sepatu-nike-5' at line 1

INSERT INTO `gis_news_items` ( insert into gis_news_items values ( title="sepatu nike 5m",alias='sepatu-nike-5m',introtext='

sepatu nike seharga 5m dengan desain indomie
',fulltexts=' ',catid=586,published=0,modified_by=1150,publish_up='',metadesc="sepatu desain indomie",metakey="sepatu, indomie") VALUES ('')

any help and explanation would be appreciated since i'm still learning how to code a good query
thank you :)

Answer 1

You have invalid SQL query.

$query=" insert gis_news_items set "

should be

$query=" insert into gis_news_items values( "
....

checkout more examples here https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/insert/

Answer 2

Try the sql

$query=" insert gis_news_items (title, alias, introtext, fulltexts, catid, published, modified_by, metadesc, metakey )  values 
('".$title."', '".$this->input->post('alias',true )."', '". $this->input->post('content')."',' ', ".$this->input->post('catid').", '".$this->input->post('pub').$usertxt."', ".$this->user.$tgl.", '".str_replace('"',"'", $this->input->post('deskripsi',true)  )."', '".str_replace('"',"'", $this->input->post('keyword',true)  )."' ) ";
