Laravel remove first item in a collection

Question

I want to remove the first item in a collection:

unset($productData->images->first()) 

The above doesn't work.

The reason I want this is so that later when I do a foreach, the first item doesn't come out:

@foreach($productData->images as $images)     <img class="product-thumb" src="/images/products/{{$images->src_thumb}}"> @endforeach 

How can this be done?

Answer 1

You can use shift() to get and remove the first item of a Laravel collection.
See the Source of Illuminate\Support\Collection

And here's an example:

$productData->images->shift();
