    <p>Just a simple function in native php</p> <pre><code>protected function some_function(){ session_start(); if(!isset($_SESSION['a'])) { $_SESSION['a'] = 'some value'; return true; } else { return $_SESSION['a']; } } </code></pre> <p>on the 1st run, it will return bool(true) and then <code>"some value"</code> as expected.</p> <p>Applying the same to laravel session,</p> <pre><code>protected function some_function(){ $a = Session::get('abc'); if(is_null($a)){ Session::put('abc', 'some value'); //return Session::get('abc'); return true; } else { return $a; } } </code></pre> <p>By logic, on the 1st run, $a will be <code>null</code>. and then puts <code>"some value"</code> in <code>abc</code> key and returns bool(true) as expected.</p> <p><strong>However</strong> on consequent access, the <code>Session::get('abc')</code> <strong>returns null every time.</strong> so every attempt returns bool(true). </p> <p>I assumed may be session wasn't writing properly so i checked with getting the key value right after setting it. </p> <p>by commenting out the line in the above code, it returns whatever value i put in <code>Session::put('abc')</code>. <strong>So there is no error in writing the data.</strong></p> <p><strong>Problem</strong> here is trying to retrieve the value always returns <code>null</code> though i have set after the 1st request. </p> <p>Am i missing something here?</p> <hr> <h2>EDIT</h2> <p>Using database as the driver, The sessions does not get save in database. No error is outputted. Database implementation has been correct with sessions table schema as described in docs.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
