Laravel Redirect Back with() Message

Question

Try

return Redirect::back()->withErrors(['msg' => 'The Message']);

and inside your view call this

@if($errors->any())
<h4>{{$errors->first()}}</h4>
@endif

Laravel 5 and later

Controller

 return redirect()->back()->with('success', 'your message,here');   

Blade:

@if (\Session::has('success'))
    <div class="alert alert-success">
        <ul>
            <li>{!! \Session::get('success') !!}</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
@endif

Alternative approach would be

Controller

use Session;
       
Session::flash('message', "Special message goes here");
return Redirect::back();

View

@if (Session::has('message'))
   <div class="alert alert-info">{{ Session::get('message') }}</div>
@endif

In Laravel 5.4 the following worked for me:

return back()->withErrors(['field_name' => ['Your custom message here.']]);
