Hulp nodig bij het koppelen van databasewaarden

Oké, ik heb het werkend gekregen. Ik weet niet zeker of dit de meest elegante oplossing is. Als iemand met verbeteringen wil ingaan, ben ik een en al oor. Hopelijk helpt dit iemand die een soortgelijk probleem heeft in de toekomst.

Mijn laatste vraag over een item/productlus:

    // Get all Items associated with this category page

    // ID of current  category

    $current_cat = $this->category->id;

    // Product IDs array

    $product_ids_array = array();

    $db = JFactory::getDbo();

    $query = $db->getQuery( true );

    $query->select($db->quoteName(array('id' )));

    $query->from( $db->quoteName( '#__k2_items' ) );

    $query->where( $db->quoteName( 'catid' )." = " .$current_cat . ' AND published = 1' );

    $db->setQuery( $query );

    $row = $db->loadObjectList();

    // Store Titles, Descriptions and IDs in arrays

    foreach ($row as $value)
    {
        $product_ids_array[] = $value->id;

    };

    // Now we're going to get the IDs of the tags associated with the items

    // Create comma seperated list of product ids

    $product_ids = implode(',', $product_ids_array);

    // Tag IDs Array

    $tag_IDs_array = array();

    $db = JFactory::getDbo();

    $query = $db->getQuery( true );

    $query->select($db->quoteName(array( 'tagID', 'itemID' )));

    $query->from( $db->quoteName( '#__k2_tags_xref' ) );

    $query->where($db->quoteName('itemID') . ' IN (' . $product_ids . ' )'  );

    $db->setQuery( $query );

    $row = $db->loadObjectList();

    $tagsRow = $db->loadObjectList();

    $tagsResult = array();

    $tagsResult = json_decode(json_encode($tagsRow),true);

    // Store tag IDs and item IDs

    foreach ($row as $value)
    {
        $tag_IDs_array[] = $value->tagID;     
    };

    // Now we're going to get the names of the tags

    // Create comma seperated list of tag ids

    $tag_IDs = implode(',', $tag_IDs_array );

    // Tag Names Array

    $tag_names_array = array();

    $db = JFactory::getDbo();

    $query = $db->getQuery( true );

    $query->select($db->quoteName(array( 'name' )));

    $query->from( $db->quoteName( '#__k2_tags' ) );

    $query->where($db->quoteName('id') . ' IN (' . $tag_IDs . ' )'  );

    $db->setQuery( $query );

    $row = $db->loadObjectList();

    // Store tag names

    foreach ($row as $value)
    {

        $tag_names_array[] = $value->name;

    };

    // Now we're going to get the attachments

    // Attachments Arrays

    $db = JFactory::getDbo();

    $query = $db->getQuery( true );

    $query->select($db->quoteName(array( 'id', 'itemID', 'filename', 'title', 'titleAttribute' )));

    $query->from( $db->quoteName( '#__k2_attachments' ) );

    $query->where($db->quoteName('itemID') . ' IN (' . $product_ids . ' )'  );

    $db->setQuery( $query );

    $attachmentRow = $db->loadObjectList();

    $attachmentResult = array();

    $attachmentResult = json_decode(json_encode($attachmentRow),true); 

    // Function to search multidimensional arrays
    function search($array, $key, $value)
    {
        $results = array();

        if (is_array($array)) {
            if (isset($array[$key]) && $array[$key] == $value) {
                $results[] = $array;
            }

            foreach ($array as $subarray) {
                $results = array_merge($results, search($subarray, $key, $value));
            }
        }

        return $results;
    }


    // Now we're going to create our product loop


    // Get Tag Names

    foreach( $tag_names_array as $display_tag_name ) {

        // Unformatted Tag Name - this is the one that will be displayed on the front end

        $unformatted_display_tag_name = $display_tag_name;

        // Convert Tag Name White Spaces to Dashes
