Expected result in user table
Array
(
[id] => 4
[social_id] =>
[role_id] => 0
[name] =>
[first_name] => john
[last_name] => Hunny
[gender] => male
[dob] => 02-02-2017
[language] => english

[updated_at] => 2017-02-22 12:16:56
[deleted_at] =>
)
Here is my code
public function verifyInformation($id){
if($id){
$getRequest = request::all()->toArray();
$user = User::where('id', $id)->first()->toArray();
foreach($getRequest as $row=>$value){
foreach($value as $rowKey => $result){
$array_key = array_keys($user);
$arrayDiff = array_diff($value, $user);
$find = $arrayDiff['field_name'];
if(in_array($find, $array_key)){
foreach($array_key as $k => $v){
if($v == $find){
$fieldKey = $v;
$fieldValue = $arrayDiff['value'];
if($fieldValue){
$user = new User;
$user->$fieldKey = $fieldValue;
$user->save();
return redirect()->back()->with("status", "Well done!! profile updated successfully");
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
Note: only phone, first_name and last_name updated in expected result

Answer 1

This code will provide an updated array to save and indicate if any values have changed. It is just four declarations to set things up, followed by a foreach loop containing a condition statement which commands the push of data into the array. Modify my snippet to suit your purpose.
