Php 在“选择”菜单中删除重复的城镇

我有一个选择菜单选项，可以通过以下方式获取城市：

select ID from $wpdb->posts where post_type = 'place' and post_parent = $cities order by post_title asc 

问题是有些城镇不止一次被展示，比如“柏林”。如何使用sql查询或其他方法删除重复的城镇

以下是整个文件：

public static function get_destination_countries() {
        global $wpdb;

        $countries = $wpdb->get_results( "select ID, post_title from $wpdb->posts where post_type = 'place' and post_parent = 0 order by post_title asc ", ARRAY_A );

        return $countries;
    }

        global $wpdb;

            // We need to make sure the destination state has ACF "state"
            $place_type_tax_id = '';
            $place_type_tax = get_term_by( 'slug', 'state', 'place-type' );
            if ( ! empty( $place_type_tax ) && ! is_wp_error( $place_type_tax ) ) {
                $place_type_tax_id = $place_type_tax->term_id;
            }

            //$states = $wpdb->get_results( "select ID, post_title from $wpdb->posts where post_type = 'place' and post_parent = $country_id order by post_title asc", ARRAY_A );
            $states = $wpdb->get_results( "select p.ID  , p.post_title, pm.meta_value from $wpdb->postmeta pm inner join $wpdb->posts p where p.post_parent = $country_id and p.ID = pm.post_id and meta_value = '$place_type_tax_id' order by post_title asc" , ARRAY_A );

        return false;
    }

尝试：

---

DISTINCT

将从表中返回唯一的

ID

。

如果变量不在

array（）

中，则将它们放在数组的第一位。并使用

array\u unique（$town）（$town基于数组变量）

array\u unique（）
将确保数组中的项将返回一个新数组，而不返回重复值

有关更多详细信息，请参考：
它们是否在数据库中重复？是的，因为我是通过查询获得它们的，所以我想将查询的开始更改为-SELECT DISTINCT IDuse
SELECT disitnct
或
groupby
这仍然是一个问题
select DISTINCT(ID) from $wpdb->posts where post_type = 'place' and post_parent = $cities order by post_title asc
