I cannot get assigned tags in my view as auto selected:
Logic
- Get all tags
$tags
. - Get assigned tags from database
$tags2
. - Auto select assigned tags.
Code
<select class="chosen-select-tags" name="tags[]" multiple id="tags"> @foreach ($tags as $tag) <option value="{{$tag->id}}" // selecting old tags @foreach($tags2 as $tt) {{ $tag->id == $tt ? 'selected' : '' }} @endforeach // end of selecting old tags >{{$tag->title}}</option> @endforeach </select>
Values
$tags
array of assigned tags to my model in this case 2, result
array:2 [▼ 0 => "40b7ea5f-a2d8-4b4e-af6c-b023c2b75db3" 1 => "533c66f6-073b-4342-8fb1-ec5ede3a0c9c" ]
this two uuid
should be auto selected in $tags
which is is my full tags array.
Current result
Nothing has been selected.
Note: I am using chosen for my select input
