Remove key and value from associative array inside of array

Question

I have a little bit chaotic problem... As you can see in code below, I have an array, which contains other arrays. It creates user navigation according to their roles. Navigation items are inherited and here is my problem. I need to set values for key 'dokumenty' in the lowest role EXPERT, than it shouldn't be visible for roles REPORTER and REFERENT and than again visible for EDITOR. So I am sharing EXPERT and REPORTER code, where I tried to remove values for 'dokumenty', but it threw me an error with array_merge()... I will be glad for any help, how to remove row with 'dokumenty' key. I think I shouldn't share whole return, because it's quite long.

Solved, I had to use shorthand for if and it works.

 'dokumenty' => (($userRole[0] == "EXPERT") ? (array('order' => 8, 'href' => '#', 'label' => 'Dokumenty', 'ico' => 'fa fa-newspaper-o', 'hidden' => 0, 'nodes' => array(
      array('order' => 12, 'href' => ':ExpertReview:ContractsList:default', 'label' => 'Posudky', 'ico' => 'fa fa-folder'),
      ))) : null),
  ),

If i understood you right than you intent to remove the Dokumentry key from the array which can be achieved with the unset method unset($arrayName['keyName']);

If you just want to unset the value of Dokumentry in that array than you should do this:

 $yourArray = array(
         AuthRoleEnum::EXPERT => array(
            'prehled' => array('order' => 1, 'href' => ':Dashboard:Default:default', 'label' => 'Prehled', 'ico' => 'fa fa-th-list'),
            'pozemky' => array('order' => 3, 'href' => '#', 'label' => 'Pozemky', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o', 'nodes' => array(
                array('order' => 1, 'href' => ':Land:List:default', 'label' => 'Seznam pozemku', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o'),
                array('order' => 2, 'href' => ':Land:List:selected', 'label' => 'Muj vyber', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o'),
            )),
            'mapa' => array('order' => 4, 'href' => ':Map:Default:default', 'label' => 'Mapa', 'ico' => 'fa fa-globe'),
            'dokumenty' => array('order' => 8, 'href' => '#', 'label' => 'Dokumenty', 'ico' => 'fa fa-newspaper-o', 'nodes' => array(
                array('order' => 12, 'href' => ':ExpertReview:ContractsList:default', 'label' => 'Posudky', 'ico' => 'fa fa-folder'),
            )),
        ),
        AuthRoleEnum::REPORTER => array(
            'dokumenty' => null,
            'workflow' => array('order' => 20, 'href' => ':Construction:List:workflow', 'label' => 'Workflow', 'ico' => 'fa fa-cubes'),
        ));
unset($yourArray[AuthRoleEnum::REPORTER]['dokumenty'] );
return $yourArray;

Or maybe your problem would be solved by using null instead of using qoutes ''.

return array(
     AuthRoleEnum::EXPERT => array(
        'prehled' => array('order' => 1, 'href' => ':Dashboard:Default:default', 'label' => 'Prehled', 'ico' => 'fa fa-th-list'),
        'pozemky' => array('order' => 3, 'href' => '#', 'label' => 'Pozemky', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o', 'nodes' => array(
            array('order' => 1, 'href' => ':Land:List:default', 'label' => 'Seznam pozemku', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o'),
            array('order' => 2, 'href' => ':Land:List:selected', 'label' => 'Muj vyber', 'ico' => 'fa fa-flag-o'),
        )),
        'mapa' => array('order' => 4, 'href' => ':Map:Default:default', 'label' => 'Mapa', 'ico' => 'fa fa-globe'),
        'dokumenty' => array('order' => 8, 'href' => '#', 'label' => 'Dokumenty', 'ico' => 'fa fa-newspaper-o', 'nodes' => array(
            array('order' => 12, 'href' => ':ExpertReview:ContractsList:default', 'label' => 'Posudky', 'ico' => 'fa fa-folder'),
        )),
    ),
    AuthRoleEnum::REPORTER => array(
        'dokumenty' => null,
        'workflow' => array('order' => 20, 'href' => ':Construction:List:workflow', 'label' => 'Workflow', 'ico' => 'fa fa-cubes'),
    ),

If this doesn't help you, please provide the entire return, error message and try to define what you are trying to do more precisely.

The same error has been explained in this question Warning: array_merge(): Argument #1 is not an array, when processing two $_POST

I've already tried this, but it didn't work. So I will add full return to my question and error which I get when I use this solution.

Road2PreSchool Over a year ago

@HS1993 maybe you should give array() instead of null so that it's an empty array check out the link to the other question I've put at the end of the answer.

HS1993 Over a year ago

I've tried this too, but than I got this error message: Undefined index: nodes

Road2PreSchool Over a year ago

@HS1993 Well could you send me the AuthRoleEnum class and are you using any framework?

HS1993 Over a year ago

I have solved it! Look at my answer, that worked for me :) but thank you for help anyway!
