SQL：要合并的两个不同查询

Question

I have these two different queries.

This query pulls the records from "posts" table as per their replies counter. Only posts with replies are returned with this query:

SELECT posts.title, posts.num, posts.status, COUNT( posts_replies.post_num)  AS count
FROM posts_replies
INNER JOIN posts ON ( posts_replies.post_num = posts.num )
WHERE posts.status = 1
AND posts.category='uncategorized'
GROUP BY posts.num

And this is a new query that i want to merge with the above one to pull and sort records as per gps.

SELECT num, title, ( 3959 * acos( cos( radians( 37 ) ) * cos( radians( lat ) ) * cos( radians( lon ) - radians( -122 ) ) + sin( radians( 37 ) ) * sin( radians( lat ) ) ) ) AS distance
FROM posts
HAVING distance <75
ORDER BY distance

This query uses the columns lat and long to return records that are within the 75 miles radius of the user.

I am not a sql expert and don't know how to merge both of the queries to gather results having the following criteria:

1. Only return posts with replies
2. Sort by their distance
3. Sort by their number of replies

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

The having clause in the second query does not look correct. In most dialects of SQL is would not be allowed without a group by . I forget if MySQL t implicitly treats the whole query as an aggregation (returning one row) or if the having gets converted to a where . In either case, you should be explicit and use where when there are no aggregations.

You can just combine them by putting in the where clause. I would do it with a subquery, to make the variable definitions clearer:

      SELECT p.title, p.num, p.status, p.distance,
             COUNT( p_replies.post_num)  AS count
      FROM posts_replies pr  INNER JOIN
           (select p.*,
                   ( 3959 * acos( cos( radians( 37 ) ) * cos( radians( lat ) ) * cos( radians( lon ) - radians( -122 ) ) + sin( radians( 37 ) ) * sin( radians( lat ) ) ) ) AS distance
            from posts p
           ) p
           ON pr.post_num = p.num
      WHERE p.status = 1 AND
            p.category='uncategorized' and
            distance < 75
      GROUP BY p.num
      order by distance
