Laravel 5 checkbox not storing value from submit form

Question

I have added a checkbox to my existing submit form that must change from value 0 to 1 if it is activated. But they dont' save the value, it's always 0.

My code:

 <label class="checkbox-inline">
      <input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox1" value="true" name="trackingnumber"> You provide an Tracking Number   
 </label>

ProductController:

if ($request->trackingnumber == 'true') {
    $product->trackingnumber = true;
}

What have I forgotten?

Can you show more code? Do you run $product->save() somewhere to save it into database? — Marcin Nabiałek

What’s the content of $request->trackingnumber? Have you tried looking at it with dd($request->trackingnumber); for example? — Gluten

In your ProductController do

if ($request->trackingnumber == 'on') {

and set the value also to "on" in your html and it should work

or you just simply dd($request)

in this situation try dd($request) in your controller and check what it contain in that.

Update:

Hey please put checkbox value="1" and then check what value of checkbox is there in request.

I dont get any output, all other submitted values are saved in DB but "trackingnumber" are always "0"

on the starting of your function you have to write like this public function index(){ dd(Request()); } and check what value it contain
