Displaying the Error Messages in Laravel after being Redirected from controller

Laravel 4

When the validation fails return back with the validation errors.

if($validator->fails()) {    return Redirect::back()->withErrors($validator);}

You can catch the error on your view using

@if($errors->any())    {{ implode('', $errors->all('<div>:message</div>')) }}@endif

UPDATE

To display error under each field you can do like this.

<input type="text" name="firstname">@if($errors->has('firstname'))    <div class="error">{{ $errors->first('firstname') }}</div>@endif

For better display style with css.

You can refer to the docs here.

UPDATE 2

To display all errors at once

@if($errors->any())    {!! implode('', $errors->all('<div>:message</div>')) !!}@endif

To display error under each field.

@error('firstname')    <div class="error">{{ $message }}</div>@enderror

If you want to load the view from the same controller you are on:

if ($validator->fails()) {    return self::index($request)->withErrors($validator->errors());}

And if you want to quickly display all errors but have a bit more control:

 @if ($errors->any())     @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)         <div>{{$error}}</div>     @endforeach @endif

@if ($errors->has('category'))    <span class="error">{{ $errors->first('category') }}</span>@endif
