Laravel 5.2 conditional extends template in Blade

Question

I want to extend template based on condition. I know i can use @if @else statement in blade. I am doing the same thing, but blade extending both the template. I don't know why.

@if(isset(Auth::user()->id))
    @extends('layouts.adminlayout')
@else
   @extends('layouts.default')
@endif

@section('content')
    i am the home page
    {{ isset(Auth::user()->id) }}
@stop

As, you can see i am checking whether or not user login-ed and then extend the template layout. But it is extending from both the layout.

Please help me.

Answer 1

The first line in your extended blade view must be the @extends directive. Try using a ternary operator for this.

@extends(isset(Auth::user()->id) ? 'layouts.adminlayout' : 'layouts.default');

UPDATE for role based layouts. Refer to this question for more conditions.

@extends((!isset(Auth::user()->id))? 'layouts.default': ((Auth::user()->role == 'admin') ? 'layouts.adminlayout' : 'layouts.moderatorlayout'));

Malcommalcontent

that's cool, what about is i have multiple condition like authenticated user based on role and why my condition not working. – Duong

You can check users role on that condition. – Malcommalcontent

could you please write that condition for admin and manager if user authenticated else default as i am not good with ternary operator. – Duong

Let me try. If not possible i'll get back to you. Now i am accepting your question. But my one question still remaining, why my condition not work ? – Duong

It's because The first line in your extended blade view must be the @extends directive – Malcommalcontent

is it possible to pass in variables to be included with the @extend call in this case when using a ternary statement? – Commove

Try this code, parenterais are important

@extends(Auth::user()->rol_id == 1 ? 'layouts.admin' : ((Auth::user()->rol_id == 2) ? 'layouts.client' : 'layouts.client'))
