I got stuck!

I can't fix the problem, especially on line 11. If someone know what's wrong this code, please let me know.

index.php 
<?php
function get_member($members) {
    include("connection.php");

    try {
      $results = $db->prepare(
          "SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level
          FROM members
          WHERE member_id = ? "
      );
      $results -> bindParam(1,$member_id);
    } catch (Exception $e) {
      echo "bad query";
    }

    $members = $results->fetchAll();
    return $members;
}

You need to add LIMIT 1, and execute query, like this:

function get_member($member_id) {
    include("connection.php");

    try {
      $results = $db->prepare(
          "SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level
          FROM members WHERE member_id = ? LIMIT 1"
      );
      $results->bindParam(1, $member_id, PDO::PARAM_INT);
      $results->execute();
    } catch (Exception $e) {
      echo "bad query";
    }

    $members = $results->fetchAll();
    return $members;
}
