MySQL Alter Table在已存在的字段之前或之后添加字段

Question

I have this, but it doesn't work:

$query = "ALTER TABLE `".$table_prefix."posts_to_bookmark` 
            ADD `ping_status` INT( 1 ) NOT NULL BEFORE `onlywire_status`";

I appreciate it!

Answer 1

$query = "ALTER TABLE `" . $table_prefix . "posts_to_bookmark` 
          ADD COLUMN `ping_status` INT(1) NOT NULL 
          AFTER `<TABLE COLUMN BEFORE THIS COLUMN>`";

I believe you need to have ADD COLUMN and use AFTER , not BEFORE .

In case you want to place column at the beginning of a table, use the FIRST statement:

$query = "ALTER TABLE `" . $table_prefix . "posts_to_bookmark`
          ADD COLUMN `ping_status` INT(1) NOT NULL 
          FIRST";
