Kompliceret MySQL-forespørgsel

Du kan gøre sådan noget:

SELECT 
    t1.post_id, 
    t1.meta_value AS name, 
    t2.meta_value AS season, 
    t3.meta_value AS episode
FROM
    (
    SELECT *
    FROM the_table
    WHERE meta_key = 'name'
    ) t1
INNER JOIN
    (
    SELECT *
    FROM the_table
    WHERE meta_key = 'season'
    ) t2 ON t1.post_id = t2.post_id
INNER JOIN
    (
    SELECT *
    FROM the_table
    WHERE meta_key = 'episode'
    ) t3 ON t1.post_id = t3.post_id

Dette vil give dig resultatet:

| post_id | name       | season | episode |
-------------------------------------------
|    1    | Smallville | 1      | 1       |
|    2    | Smallville | 1      | 2       |

I denne form er det meget lettere for enhver operation.

Det du skal bruge er at tilføje:

WHERE name = 'Smallville'
ORDER BY season, episode
