Blade Template Issue

Hi there (hope this is in correct section, my first post),

In the main "app.blade.php" template file I've added a custom "@yield('nav')" in addition to the default "@yield('content')". But when I try to extend the layouts.app within navigation.blade.php file, for some reason its not displaying the navigation template within "@yield('nav')".

You guys got any ideas ?

Yes I've read the documentation. Heres the code in app.blade.php

<nav id="main_navigation">

      @yield('nav')

    </nav>

    <section id="main_container">

      @yield('content')

    </section>

And here's the code on navigation.blade.php

@extends('layouts.app')

@section('nav')
 Display this text...
@endsection

The content yield works as it should, but the nav yield is not working.

you put nav in app.blade.php but you extend layouts.app

My guess is you are not viewing the navigation.blade.php file

Show us your route

And just a bonus, are you trying to separate your navigation from your main template? in that case you are not supposed to use @yield, but rather @include

This looks like you are trying to create a new navigation on each page using the layout

@WebKenth Infact I was trying to do the opposite, I was trying to use the navigation throughout the entire website, which is exactly what app.blade does by default. I'm so dumb it's unreal. All I need to do is construct my nav in app.blade.

Thank you both for you help, i'll exit this discussion with my tail between my legs and feeling a little embarrassed.

Thanks again!
