MySQL: Multiple Inserts for a single column

Question

I\'m looking for a way to do multiple row inserts when I\'m only inserting data for a single column.

Here is the example table:

+-------+-------------+--         


        

Answer 1

I will advise you Don't put multiple values in a column. make a new table:

     INSERT INTO table_name (id, name) VALUES (1, 'name1'), (1, 'name2'), (1, 'name3'), (1, 'name4');

Answer 2

your syntax is a bit off. put parentheses around each data "set" (meaning a single value in this case) that you are trying to insert.

INSERT INTO User_Roll(name) VALUES ('admin'), ('author'), ('mod'), ('user'), ('guest');
