Question

I have mulutiselect option enabled in select html code, my frontend look like this: enter image description here

For example if user unselect some option and select other how can I update it in database, any idea?

I believe this question is not specifically related to Laravel. Could you at least show your table's schema so we could help you on the way you should link your queries/tables? — Mooncake, Jul 08 '15 at 11:16
`sync()` method is what you are after. search for `sync` here http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/eloquent — pinkal vansia, Jul 08 '15 at 11:17

If you have ManyToMany relationships between say Group and Project you can use sync() method to maintain association as below,

$group->projects()->sync([$projId1, $projId2]);

Above will remove all previous association between current group($group) and projects and associates newly supplied projects i.e. $projId1, $projId2.

If you want to maintain previous associations pass false as a second argument in sync() as below,

$group->projects()->sync([$projId1, $projId2], false);

Above code will maintain previous Group and Project association and will also associate passed projects.

Thanks, I have now new problem please chack: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31292695/how-to-use-sync-with-pivot-laravel-5 — Vladimir Djukic, Jul 08 '15 at 12:30
