I have a question about MySQL: I want to list results from a table but gather additional information about these results from another table by a foreign key.
My table YTPrograms has a foreign key called Author which corresponds to the Id of a second table called YTUsers from which I want to add the username to my result from the YTPrograms query. I'm not sure how to do this without having to query (the users table) for each result.

Try this:
SELECT p.something, u.username FROM YTPrograms p, YTUsers u WHERE p.Author = u.Id

As the title suggests, trying to take the count or possibly distinct count of a column, we call it year, to count the number of a years for an individual or populated ID and place it another column in the same table. Here is an idea of what I have so far and we want to update the table. Thank you.
Join group table to updated table directly:
UPDATE outputtable O JOIN
(SELECT personID, COUNT(DISTINCT year) AS countYear
FROM outputtable GROUP BY personID) temp ON O.personID=temp.personID
SET O.N=temp.countYear

I've got a database with two relevant tables (times and registrations).
I want to get the times from the times table, through an SQL query, that aren't in the registrations table (don't have a registration on them). Registration at 5PM, wouldn't show 5PM from times in the query.
My current query is:
SELECT time FROM `times` WHERE time IN (SELECT time FROM `registrations` WHERE ID IS NOT NULL)
(registrations DO have an ID)
This does the opposite of what I want it to do (shows all times, regardless of registration, or not).
How could I get the opposite effect?
You seem to want not exists:
select t.*
from times t
where not exists (select 1 from regisrations r where r.time = t.time)

I have 2 email tables. 1 = main email table, 2 = bounce_table.
Field email = unique in both tables.
Tasks = delete from main_email_table where email is in bounce_table.
I have no idea how to make the right call for action for this task.
I hope to get an idea how to solve this.
Thanks
check below query-
DELETE me.* FROM main_email AS me
JOIN bounce_email AS be ON me.email=be.email;
You need a DELETE with JOIN:
DELETE email_table
FROM email_table
INNER JOIN bounce_table ON bounce_table.email = email_table.email

Even this is asked a billion times here already, none of them has worked for me.
So: I have two tables:
banhammer_bans:
and banhammer_players:
What sort of query should I make that it gets the name value from the "players" table corresponding to the "player_id" and "creator_id" value? I've tried with JOINS and UNIONS but no success.
Select p.name, p.id as player_id, b.creator_id as creator_id
from banhammer_bans as b
inner join banhammer_players as p on p.id = b.player_id
You can use something like this:
select
*
from
banhammer_bans, banhammer_players
where
banhammer_players.player_id = banhammer_bans.id
This is a kind of Join too, but it has some sort of efficiency problems.
