Laravel - Check if @yield empty or not

Question

Is it possible to check into a blade view if @yield have content or not?

I am trying to assign the page titles in the views:

@section(\"title\", \"hi wor         


        

Answer 1

There is probably a prettier way to do this. But this does the trick.

@if (trim($__env->yieldContent('title')))
    <h1>@yield('title')</h1>
@endif

Answer 2

You can simply check if the section exists:

if (isset($__env->getSections()['title'])) {

    @yield('title');
}

And you can even go a step further and pack this little piece of code into a Blade extension: http://laravel.com/docs/templates#extending-blade

Answer 3

In Laravel 5 we now have a hasSection method we can call on a View facade.

You can use View::hasSection to check if @yeild is empty or not:

<title>
    @if(View::hasSection('title'))
        @yield('title')
    @else
        Static Website Title Here
    @endif
</title>

This conditional is checking if a section with the name of title was set in our view.

 

Tip: I see a lot of new artisans set up their title sections like this:

@section('title')
Your Title Here
@stop

but you can simplify this by just passing in a default value as the second argument:

@section('title', 'Your Title Here')

 

The hasSectionmethod was added April 15, 2015.

Answer 4

For those looking on it now (2018+), you can use :

@hasSection('name')
   @yield('name')
@endif

See : https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/blade#control-structures

Answer 5

Given from the docs:

@yield('section', 'Default Content');

Type in your main layout e.g. "app.blade.php", "main.blade.php", or "master.blade.php"

<title>{{ config('app.name') }} - @yield('title', 'Otherwise, DEFAULT here')</title>

And in the specific view page (blade file) type as follows:

@section('title')
My custom title for a specific page
@endsection

Answer 6

@if (View::hasSection('my_section'))
    <!--Do something-->
@endif
