i have a weird case where when i change the form::open to form::model and add $user, the page layouts are gone. by this i mean if i use below it works fine and all the layouts are perfectly there.

{!! Form::open( ['method'=>'PATCH', 'action'=>['AdminUsersController@update', $user->id], 'files'=>true , 'class'=>'form-horizontal']) !!}

but when i try to get the user details on the edit page with below code, all my layouts and styles on the edit page disappears.

{!! Form::model($user, ['method'=>'PATCH', 'action'=>['AdminUsersController@update', $user->id], 'files'=>true , 'class'=>'form-horizontal']) !!}

chrome doesnt detect any error of not able to get css files. its like laravel drops drops all of it. Below is my full code in edit page.

{!! Form::model($user, ['method'=>'PATCH', 'action'=>['AdminUsersController@update', $user->id], 'files'=>true , 'class'=>'form-horizontal']) !!}
                            <div class="form-group">
                                {!! Form::Label('name', 'Name:', ['class'=>'col-sm-3 control-label']) !!}
                                <div class="col-sm-9">
                                    {!! Form::text('name', null, ['class'=>'form-control','placeholder'=>'Full Name']) !!}
                                </div>
                            </div>
                            <div class="form-group">
                                {!! Form::Label('email', 'Email:', ['class'=>'col-sm-3 control-label']) !!}
                                <div class="col-sm-9">

  • really close. your answer helped me identify the near source. it was the line above your line. i edited it to. {!! Form::text('photo_id', null, ['class'=>'form-control', 'placeholder'=>'Browse..', 'readonly'=>'']) !!} where photo_id was previously empty. thank you. – Mohamed Athif Oct 16 '16 at 11:17
