I am trying to find out if a user exists in my database already, but no matter what I try, I always get the equivalent of a false.
$stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT * FROM members WHERE member_username = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $username);
$stmt->execute();
if($stmt->num_rows > 0) {
return 'user exists';
}
I know this has got to be something very simple... something I am clearly overlooking, but I always get that num_rows = 0, even though the user is in the database already.
Can someone please help?
Call get_result()
or store_result()
before call num_rows
:
$stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT * FROM members WHERE member_username = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $username);
$stmt->execute();
$res = $stmt->get_result(); //<--- HERE
if($res->num_rows > 0) { //<--- HERE
return 'user exists';
}
OR
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->store_result(); //<--- HERE
if($stmt->num_rows > 0) {
