php - Convert mysqli pagination to prepared statement pagination

Question

the current working code with mysqli is as below. I would like to convert it to prepared statements. there is basically three sql query need to convert to prepared statement. the first part is the hardest part for me to figure out the prepared way to get count value which i kinda managed to figure it out eventually.

include_once("storescripts/connect_to_mysqli.php");
// This first query is just to get the total count of rows
$sql2 = "SELECT COUNT(id) FROM products ";
$query2 = mysqli_query($myConnection, $sql2);
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($query2);
// Here we have the total row count
$rows = $row[0];
// This is the number of results we want displayed per page
$page_rows = 10;
// This tells us the page number of our last page
$last = ceil($rows/$page_rows);
// This makes sure $last cannot be less than 1
if($last < 1){
    $last = 1;
}
// Establish the $pagenum variable
$pagenum = 1;
// Get pagenum from URL vars if it is present, else it is = 1
if(isset($_GET['pn'])){
    $pagenum = preg_replace('#[^0-9]#', '', $_GET['pn']);

// This makes sure the page number isn't below 1, or more than our $last page
if ($pagenum < 1) { 
    $pagenum = 1; 
} else if ($pagenum > $last) { 
    $pagenum = $last; 
}
// This sets the range of rows to query for the chosen $pagenum
$limit = 'LIMIT ' .($pagenum - 1) * $page_rows .',' .$page_rows;
// This is your query again, it is for grabbing just one page worth of rows by applying $limit

Answer 1

this answer has been solved by using Paginate result set having written the query with prepared statements, method 2.

the full code for reference as below. Thanks

$stmt=$myConnection->prepare('SELECT COUNT(id) FROM products');
// Don't use bind_result()...
// execute your statement
$stmt->execute();
// Get result set into a MySQLi result resource
$result = $stmt->bind_result($id);

// array to hold all rows
$rows = array();

// All results bound to output vars
