Set one custom message for multiple fields in laravel form validation

Question

Suppose I have 3 fields in the form.

I am writing this code to validate the form.

$rules = array( 'field_1' => 'required', 'field_2' => 'required', 'field_3' => 'required', ); $messages = array( 'field_1.required' => 'Please fill up all value', 'field_2.required' => 'Please fill up all value', 'field_3.required' => 'Please fill up all value', ); $validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules, $messages); 

Now, if the user filled out the form 2 fields blank, then the validator will return two error messages. If the user fills in the form 3 fields blank, then the validator returns three error messages. But I want to show only one message for all fields.

Answer 1

you can change it to

 $messages = array( 'required' => 'Please fill up all value', ); validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules, $messages); 

and let your view only display the first error message.

 {{ $errors->first(null,'<div class="alert alert-danger">:message</div>') }}
