How to make active the current value of an option for a select?

Question

Laravel

It is necessary to make an active option on onload in accordance with the title

I pull the data from the database and in the blade I make the output as follows:

@foreach ($suggestions as $value)
   <option value="{{ $value->id }}">{{ $value->title }}</option>
@endforeach

Answer 1

<option 
  value="{{ $value->id }}" 
  @if($value->id === $youId)
    selected
  @endif
>
  {{ $value->title }}
</option>

Answer 2

There is a more compact solution using Laravel Forms & HTML

{{ Form::select('your_select_name', $suggestions, $youId, ['class' => 'your-select-class']) }}
