Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I am getting this weird error, and trying to fix that from last 2 days. Please help me, thanks in advance. NOTE: dd($video,$VodDetail,$tmdb ); all are set and have required details.
$article= new Article();
$article->type = 'link';
$article->title = $video->name;
$article->description = ($VodDetail->plot)?$VodDetail->plot:($tmdb->overview)?$tmdb->overview:'';
$article->releaseDate = ($VodDetail->releasedate)?Carbon::parse($VodDetail->releasedate)->format('Y'):($tmdb->release_date)?Carbon::parse($tmdb->release_date)->format('Y'):'';
$article->stream_id = $video->stream_id;
$article->trailer = ($VodDetail->youtube_trailer)?'https://www.youtube.com/embed/'.$VodDetail->youtube_trailer:null;
$article->rating = ($video->rating)?$video->rating:($tmdb->vote_average)?$tmdb->vote_average:'';
$article->director = ($VodDetail->director)?$VodDetail->director:null;
$article->runtime = ($VodDetail->duration)?$VodDetail->duration:null;
$article->avatar = ($img_path) ? url(url($img_path)) : 'default.jpg';
$article->background_image = ($VodDetail->backdrop_path) ? (($VodDetail->backdrop_path[0])?$VodDetail->backdrop_path[0]:null) : null;
$article->genre = ($VodDetail->genre) ? preg_replace("' / '", ",", $VodDetail->genre) : null;
$article->category_idFk = Category::where('title', 'LIKE', $xtreamCategories[$video->category_id])->first()->category_id ?: null;
$article->tmdb_id = ($VodDetail->tmdb_id)?$VodDetail->tmdb_id:($tmdb->id)?$tmdb->id:'';
$article->created_at = Carbon::now()->toDateTimeString();
$article->updated_at = Carbon::now()->toDateTimeString();
$article->imdb_id = ($tmdb->imdb_id)?$tmdb->imdb_id:null;
$article->secondary_title = ($tmdb->original_title)?$tmdb->original_title:null;
$article->language_name = ($tmdb->spoken_languages)?$tmdb->spoken_languages[0]->name:null;
$article->save();
If I put dd($article); before $article-save(); it gives me following result:

There is no such property on your object:
$VodDetail->plot
Did you define plot? try dd($VodDetail) or even dd($VodDetail->plot) and see if you have it in first place.
You can not check if it is empty or null if it does not exist.
Hope it helps!
@aurawindsurfing $VodDetail->plot property exist I checked that's why it's putting value in $article->description.
No it does not ;-)
it says Undefined property: stdClass::$plot
try saving it with this one:
$article->description = '';
Does it work?
@aurawindsurfing dd($VodDetail);

OK looks like not all of the movies have a plot, have a look at your first example:
"title" => "Sacudete Las Penas"
"description" => "One of the prisoners who have to spend a long season in jail, González, dedicates his time to narrate the adventures of Pepe Frituras, one of the most renowned Mexican dancers who lost his freedom due to a night of partying. Precisely for that reason it ends up in a more dangerous penitentiary. However, through stories that integrate music and dances, he will tell of his exploits and how he ended up being the prisoner who achieved freedom through his imagination."
"releaseDate" => "2018"
No plot here.
So try doing:
$article->description = isset($VodDetail->plot) ? $VodDetail->plot : ($tmdb->overview) ?$tmdb->overview : '';
Hope it helps!
$article->description = ($VodDetail->plot) ? $VodDetail->plot : ($tmdb->overview) ?$tmdb->overview : '';
that's already in my code, have a look in 1st code snippet.
yes but:
($VodDetail->plot)
is not the same as
isset($VodDetail->plot)
You can not check if something is true or false if it does not exists
WoW! that was like a magic, Thanks @aurawindsurfing
