MySQL - Display BLOB and INSERT INTO BLOB

Inserting into a BLOB is just as easy as inserting into any field.

UPDATE table SET field = 's:12:"Insert Value"' WHERE id = 'uniqueid';

Here is how we can display info from BLOB into text.

MySQL, UPDATE data into a database using CONCAT()

To insert data into a MySQL database field while preserving the existing data in that field, simply concatenate the new data to the end of the existing data.

Below is an example of how to do this using the field "changelog".

UPDATE table1 SET changelog = CONCAT(changelog, "new data" ) WHERE id = 'idnumber';

If you would like the data that you are entering to appear at the beginning of the existing data, simply flip the concatenation, example:

MySQL INSERT with a Max() + 1 SubQuery

This was a pain in my ass to figure out so I figured I would post it here in case anyone else needs to insert a record using a Max() + 1 SubQuery.

I only use the Max()+1 SubQuery when the value I want to increase is not the primary key.

INSERT INTO table (row1, row2, row3) SELECT 1 + COALESCE((SELECT MAX(row1) FROM table), 0), 'value2', 'value3';

MySQL DELETE with a Max() Subquery

Here is a nifty way to use a SubQuery when deleting a record from your MySQL table.

The following MySQL code will delete a record from "table1" where the slot is equal to the MAX() value of slot from "table2".

DELETE FROM table1 WHERE slot = (SELECT MAX(slot) FROM table2);
