what I am trying to do is to convert standard Blade select form with multiple options where you must select options with ctrl pressed to one where you use checkboxes to select multiple choices.
My form look like this:
{!! Form::open(array('action' => 'UserController#visit_step_two', 'method' => 'post')); !!}
{!! Form::select('services', $servicesList, null, array('multiple'=>'multiple','name'=>'services[]')); !!}
{!! Form::submit('Next'); !!}
{!! Form::close(); !!}
What should I do to change that?
The Form::select() receives an array or collection which it then iterates over to generate all the <select> element's options. If you want to use checkboxes instead, you need to iterate manually to create each checkbox:
{!! Form::open(array('action' => 'UserController#visit_step_two', 'method' => 'post')); !!}
#foreach ($servicesList as $value => $name)
{!! Form::checkbox('services[]', $value, ['id' => 'service' . $value]); !!}
{!! Form::label('service' . $value, $name) !!}
#endforeach
{!! Form::submit('Next'); !!}
{!! Form::close(); !!}
The above will create a form with a list of checkboxes that have labels attached. The id attribute is added so that you can also click on the label to select the associated checkbox, since the first parameter of Form::label() will be used to generate the for attribute of the <label> which is associated with a checkbox <input> field that has the same value for the id, and since an id has to be unique it is generated using the value like so 'service' . $value because all values should also be unique.
You need jquery plugin to do that, or you can write your own.
I know a plugin is Multiple Select http://wenzhixin.net.cn/p/multiple-select/docs/#checkall-uncheckall

I'm implementing bootstrap-slider in my CRUD, I have implemented it successfully in Create, the problem is when I try to edit it,
I want to get the current value from the Model. Idk how to do this.
This is for PATCH.
<div class="form-group">
<h3 class='box-title text-info'>Percentage</h3>
{!! Form::input('text','percentage',null,['id'=>'ex8', 'data-slider-id'=>'ex1Slider', 'data-slider-min'=>'0', 'data-slider-max'=>'100', 'data-slider-step'=>'5', 'data-slider-value'=>'50']) !!}
</div>
In your form instead of creating a new form. You will bind the form to the model.
{!! Form::model('modelname', [options here] !!}
All the fields will math the model's property values.
Edit
Here is an example
You must used something like this to create a EDIT FORM
{{ Form::model($smartphones, ['method' => 'PATCH', 'url' => 'smartphones/'.$smartphones->id]) }}
You get by using $(your_model)['inputID']...You can use in "data-slider-value"... Something like this
{{ Form::input('text','mem_ram', null, ['id' => 'mem_ram', 'data-slider-value'=>$smartphones['mem_ram']]) }}
I am using form model binding and have the following select input :
{!! Form::select('user_id', $users, old('user_id') ?: Auth::id(), ['class' => 'form-control select2 users']) !!}
I would like to accomplish the following:
In the creation form: select the option where the user_id equals the authenticated user's ID, but if there was old input in the session, select that option instead.
In the edit form: always select the option that is stored in the model.
old('user_id') ?: Auth::id() doesn't seem to work when editing, because it always selects the option of the authenticated user and not the one that is stored in the model.
I believe you already have this line,
{!! Form::Model($users, ['route' => ['admin.user.update', $user->id], 'method' => 'PUT']) !!}
then your code should like this:
{!! Form::select('user_id', $users, isset($selectedUser) ? $selectedUser : null) !!}
at Create function do not pass $selectedUser to view but pass the id in your session,and in your edit function you should pass $selectedUser to view ,which is Auth::user()->id
I am using the HtmlServiceProvider in laravel 5.1 to build my form , I want to set the selected option in select dropdown list tag when I get the data from my model class
My code so far:
{!! Form::model($advertisment,['url'=>'dashboard/edit/advertisment']) !!}
{!! Form::select('Gender', [""=>'Select Gender',"Male"=>'Male', "Female"=>'Female'],0, ['class' => 'form-control', 'id' => 'form_control_6' ,'required']) !!}
{!! Form::close() !!}
Set the 0 parameter to "Male" for example and you will figure it out
If you don't want to override the value from the model, pass in null
How can I echo the value of the database value into input type?
Here's the database variable
$suppliers->supplier_name
And here my form text code. this code is not working...
{!! Form::text('supplier_name', '', array('class' => 'form-control','value'=>'$suppliers->supplier_name')) !!}
I'm using laravel 5.1
Second parameter is the value for the input, so:
{!! Form::text('supplier_name', $suppliers->supplier_name, array('class' => 'form-control')) !!}
I have seen similar questions asked before, but was unable to find a solution to my problem. So I have a ClientController and within it this function
public function edit(Client $client)
{
return view('clients.edit', compact('client'));
}
So that passes the client object to my edit view. This view is pretty much the following
{!! Form::model($client, ['method' => 'PATCH', 'route' => ['clients.update', $client->slug]]) !!}
#include('clients/partials/_form', ['submit_text' => 'Edit Client'])
{!! Form::close() !!}
So it is using a partial for the form. At the moment, the partial looks like so
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('clientName', 'Client Name:') !!}
{!! Form::text('clientName') !!}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('clientStatus', 'Client Status:') !!}
{!! Form::select('clientStatus') !!}
</div>
When I visit the edit page for a client, I can see the form. The clientName is populated with the clientName value. The clientStatus is populated if I put it as a text input, but I cant get it to populate within a select as shown above. Furthermore, clientStatus can either be New or Existing. I need the select box to be pre-populated with the status of the client that is being edited, but I need the other option available within the select as well. So if the clientStatus is New, New should be pre-selected within the select box and if I open the select, Existing should be the other option.
What would be the best way to achieve this?
Thanks
Modify your select to include an array of the possible values.
Basic Select - Label is value
{!! Form::select('clientStatus',['New','Existing']) !!}
Key Value Select - Key is value
{!! Form::select('clientStatus',[ 1 => 'New', 2 => 'Existing']) !!}
Form model will then set the value in the select to the one in the model.
