Laravel 5.2 validation errors not appearing

Question

I am trying to get validation errors to show up in Laravel.

I have a UserController set up like so:

Answer 1

The errors block should be:

@if (count($errors) > 0)
    

        

        @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
            
{{ $error }}
        @endforeach
        
    
@endif

Assuming you're using Bootstrap for the alerts.

You also don't have $validator defined. You need to do something like this:

$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
    'email' => 'required|unique:users|email|max:255',
]);

Instead of $this->validate().

That should do it.
