I have a member setting to allow the choice of multiple member selections

$form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\Member( 'mySetting', NULL, TRUE, array('multiple' => 10) ) );

How would I add the member_id values to the database?

When multiple IS NOT selected or just set to 1 I can do it via

\IPS\Db::i()->insert( 'my_table', array( 'MyDatabase' => $values['mySetting']->member_id ) );			

But IF multiple is enabled it throws a error

You have to use explode( ‘,’, $field ) or add one member per row in a foreach.

I tried the explode but got no joy from it.

I thought I might have to make a new table for the member_ids to store, a bit like how the map_user_id table is for messages, but was hoping I could just throw a array in the same column

I’m on phone now, can’t do much. Such for the member field that stores the users eho can promote items in ACP. It has an explode by “\n”, so it will store member IDs like that:

1

20

55

etc.

in same column.

Alright thanks, I gotta drop my kid to school now anyway so will check on it a bit later

if ($values = $form->values(true)) // Set true and all values would be strings

and

\IPS\Db::i()->insert( 'my_table', array( 'some_column' => $values['mySetting'] ) );

Perfect but it will add it in new lines like adriano shows above, How would I do it so it goes 1, 2, 3, 4 instead of

1

2

3

4

--- EDIT ---

I done it, Thanks @Adriano Faria and @newbie LAC for the help I finished it off with the code below (If anyone else needs this in the future)

$test = $values['mySetting'];
$tester = is_array( $test ) ? implode( ",", $test ) : $test;
$tester = implode(",", explode("\n", $tester));

then to the database

\IPS\Db::i()->insert( 'my_table', array( 'some_column' => $tester ) );

What's wrong?

In your code you can use

explode("\n", $ids)

 instead of 

explode(",", $ids)

If you prefer commas

\IPS\Db::i()->insert( 'my_table', array( 'some_column' => implode(',', explode("\n", $values['mySetting'])) ) );

I managed to do it I edited my post above with how, Thanks again

You already made it but I will post it here; it may help anyone else someday.

$form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\Member( 'promote_members', \IPS\Settings::i()->promote_members ? array_map( array( 'IPS\Member', 'load' ), explode( "\n", \IPS\Settings::i()->promote_members ) ) : NULL, FALSE, array( 'multiple' => NULL ), NULL, NULL, NULL, 'promote_twitter_members' ) );

Save it like newbie_lac said.
