You have an array  A PHP array is basically a  list of things    Your array has one thing in it   That thing is a standard class   You need to either remove the thing from your array   object   array shift  array   var dump  object- gt id     Or refer to the thing by its index in the array   var dump   array 0 - gt id      Or  if you re not sure how many things are in the array  loop over the array  foreach  array as  key  gt  value        var dump  value- gt id       var dump  array  key - gt id

To access an array member you use  array  KEY    To access an object member you use  obj- gt KEY  To access an object member inside an array of objects   array 0     Get the first object in the array  array 0 - gt KEY    then access its key You may also loop over an array of objects like so  foreach   arrayOfObjs as  key   gt   object        echo  object- gt object property     Think of an array as a collection of things  It s a bag where you can store your stuff and give them a unique id  key  and access them  or take the stuff out of the bag  using that key  I want to keep things simple here  but this bag can contain other bags too    Update  this might help someone understand better   An array contains  key  and  value  pairs  Providing a key for an array member is optional and in this case it is automatically assigned a numeric key which starts with 0 and keeps on incrementing by 1 for each additional member  We can retrieve a  value  from the array by it s  key   So we can define an array in the following ways  with respect to keys   First method   colorPallete     red    blue    green     The above array will be assigned numeric keys automatically  So the key assigned to red will be 0  for blue 1 and so on  Getting values from the above array   colorPallete 0      will output  red   colorPallete 1      will output  blue   colorPallete 2      will output  green   Second method   colorPallete     love    gt   red    trust    gt   blue    envy    gt   green       we expliicitely define the keys ourself   Getting values from the above array   colorPallete  love       will output  red   colorPallete  trust       will output  blue   colorPallete  envy       will output  green
