How to handle exception inside controller?

I am trying to upload a file. And if it throws an exception I don't want to see the "whoops" page. Instead it will go back the previous page with a message. This is what I tried, try { $data = Excel::toArray(new Import, request('file')); } catch (\Exception $e) { return back()->withErrors("an exception occured"); } But it still gives me the whoop

Are Event Listeners cached in some way?

Hello, I'm using a simple event listener to detect when a notification is sent using a particular channel. In my case is NotificationChannels\Twilio\TwilioChannel. Sometimes when I update this file, and upload to server, it seems that the update is not working... So I'm thinking if this is some cache in play... Any ideas? Do you flush cache when updating Event Listeners? Thank

Multiple Inputs field Styling

I would like to use this input file code in my project. My reason is styling the input field. The downside is I have 9 input fields in my HTML. The reason I did not use one input [multiple] is that they are not related so I want the user to upload the files each one by one depending on the condition I will set. I found this code.

States, Cities, Zip Codes and Counties database tables (best table design for populating dropdowns)

Hi there` Have been working on a filter bar with html selects and came across the idea of dynamically populated dropdowns. I've sketched out a number of ideas on how to structure the tables. It seems like a states table makes sense, not worried about countries yet, and right now I've got a ArizonaCitiesTable. I thought this would help against duplicate city names like Las Vegas
