I'm trying to create two separate validation messages for the same validation attribute. There are two rules that use " before_or_equal " - the end_time has to be " before_or_equal " start_time and also the end_time has to be after 5:00 (time) . The validation works, but I can't seem to find a way to create a working custom message for the latter. I tried to specify the rule by including it literally with the value, but it doesn't seem to work. This is what the custom request validation looks like for the end_time at the moment. public function rules() { return [ 'end_time' => ['after_or_equal:start_time', 'after_or_equal:5:00'], ]; } public function messages() { return [ 'end_time.after_or_equal' => 'Message 1', 'end_time.after_or_equal:5:00' => 'Message 2', ]; } by So...
