CodeIgniter Active Record Where Not In String

Question

I\'m having an issue with CI Active Record\'s \"Where Not In\". I am trying to exclude a series of ID\'s. I couldn\'t understand why everything worked fine

Answer 1

where_in and where_not_in expect you to pass an array, not a string as the 2nd parameter.

$ignore = array(12, 13);

$this->db->where_not_in('crm.user_id', $ignore);
