According to Laravel’s documentation

{{{ $name or 'Default' }}}

should behave as

if(isset($name))
   echo $name
else
   echo 'Default'

or

echo isset($title) ? $title : 'Default'

But it’s coming back 1 as if it were a true.

Now I’m using {{ isset($title) ? $title : 'Default' }} and it’s working, but I’d like to understand what happens in the first version, does anyone know why I get 1?

  • Hello @Vitor. Put your question in English, you are on Sopt. Thank you.

  • In the first example you use the variable $nome and in the second variable $title.

Try to use {{ $name or 'Default' }} (with only two keys). Apparently the way your code is, the value returned is the logical value of the expression "$name or 'Default'", which in this case returns true because PHP interprets a non-empty string as true.

  • I copied and pasted, changed the variable $name like this: {{ $title or 'Default' }} returned 1 the same way :)

    What’s your version of Laravel? What I’ve been looking for, the operator or was discontinued in version 5.5, as commented here. If your PHP version is >= 7, you can use {{ $variable ?? "default" }}. If you’re a minor, use {{ $variable ? $variable : "Default" }}.

  • Thank you so much man, that’s it ... my version is the last, I installed Laravel yesterday, THANK YOU GUY !

  • You’re welcome, man!
