// Check entry within table
$query = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS postCount FROM post_rating WHERE post_id=".$post_id." and user_id=".$user_id;
$result = mysqli_query($con,$query);
$fetchdata = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
$count = $fetchdata['postCount'];
if($count == 0){
$insertquery = "INSERT INTO post_rating(user_id,post_id,rating) values(".$user_id.",".$post_id.",".$rating.")";
mysqli_query($con,$insertquery);
}else {
$updatequery = "UPDATE post_rating SET rating=" . $rating . " where user_id=" . $user_id . " and post_id=" . $post_id;
mysqli_query($con,$updatequery);
}
// get average
$query = "SELECT ROUND(AVG(rating),1) as averageRating FROM post_rating WHERE post_id=".$post_id;
$result = mysqli_query($con,$query) or die(mysqli_error());
$fetchAverage = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
