this will help you   just compare with old if exist   if not then compare with the default value   lt select name  select name  gt       foreach  options as  key   gt   text          lt option      key    old  select name   default    selected        gt      text     lt  option gt       endforeach  lt  select gt    the  default is the value that injected from the controller to the view

Considering user also want to edit their previous input   lt select name  quot title quot  gt     foreach   titles as  key   gt   value       lt option value  quot    value- gt id   quot     old  title    user- gt title id      value- gt id    selected           gt     value- gt name    lt  option gt     endforeach  lt  select gt   old  title    user- gt title id  returns user saved title id first time  if validation fails it returns user-selected title id  Then if it is match with current option id  it is being selected

Also  you can use the   operator to avoid having to use  if  else  endif syntax  Change    if  Input  old  title       key         lt option value      key     selected gt     val    lt  option gt   else        lt option value      key     gt     val    lt  option gt   endif   Simply to    lt option value      key         Input  old  title       key    selected         gt     val    lt  option gt

I have changed the code to include    on the title value since without the quotes it fails to work       lt select class  form-control  name  team  id  team  gt        lt option value    gt ---------Choose Team--------- lt  option gt              foreach  teams as  team       lt option value     team- gt id       old  team     team- gt id    selected       gt    team- gt name   lt  option gt        endforeach      lt  select gt       eg  lt select name  title  gt       lt option value  1      old  title       1     selected          gt          Item 1      lt  option gt       lt option value  2     old  title       2     selected          gt          Item 2      lt  option gt        lt  select gt

Instead of using Input class you can also use old   helper to make this even shorter    lt option    old  name       key    selected          value      value     gt

The solution is to compare Input  old   with the  keyvariable    if  Input  old  title       key         lt option value      key     selected gt     val    lt  option gt   else        lt option value      key     gt     val    lt  option gt   endif

Laravel 6 or above  just use the old   function for instance  if  old  cat     cat- id   it will do the rest of the work for you   How its works  select tag store the selected option value into its name attribute in bellow case if you select any option it will store into cat  At the first time when page loaded there is nothing inside cat   when user chose a option the value of that selected option is stored into cat so when user were redirected old   function pull the previous value from cat       Form  open   action   gt  CategoryController storecat    method   gt  POST                 lt div class  form-group  gt               lt select name  cat  id  cat  class  form-control input-lg  gt                   lt option value    gt Select App lt  option gt                   foreach   cats as  cat                       if  old  cat     cat- gt id                           lt option value    cat- gt id   selected gt     cat- gt title    lt  option gt                       else                          lt option value    cat- gt id    gt     cat- gt title    lt  option gt                       endif                  endforeach              lt  select gt           lt  div gt            lt div class  from-group  gt                Form  label  name   Category name                    Form  text  name       class   gt  form-control    placeholder   gt  Category name               lt  div gt       lt br gt         Form  submit  Submit     class   gt  btn btn-primary              Form  close

After Playing around a bit I came up with this and it seems to work just splendidly   lt select name  options    id  options  class  form-control  multiple gt       foreach  settings- gt includes- gt get  optionList   as  option           lt option value      option- gt id         collect old  options   - gt contains  option- gt id      selected        gt     option- gt name    lt  option gt       endforeach  lt  select gt    I may be 100  wrong in leveraging the collect function but it works fine on many of my tests  After seeing a few other posts on the site I saw someone recommend leveraging the in array  needle   array  function but after noticing that if my old  options   was null it would error out because it requires in array requires  bet you guessed an array  So after finding the solution to that albeit ugly solution I played with the collect method because after all we are using larval right  well anyway the ugly solution is as follows   if  old  options       in array  option- gt id  old  options       selected         endif   inline but man that looks ugly to me so long story short I am using the following instead      collect old  options   - gt contains  option- gt id      selected          Hope this helps others    This does not seem to work for a non multiple select field ill get back with one that does work for that though

My solution here is to loop  just to avoid duplicate option                               lt select class  form-control  name  status   gt                                 lt  php  lists     Current    Win    Lose      gt                                  foreach  lists as  list                                 lt option value    list      old  status       list  selected         gt    list   lt  option gt                                 endforeach                               lt  select gt
