codeigniter flashdata not working as expected

I have set flashdata in controller like

public function customer() {
    $data['title'] = 'Black List Management';

    if ($this->input->post('single_black')) {
        //echo 'here';return;
        $wallet = trim($this->input->post('single_wallet', TRUE));
        $reason = trim($this->input->post('reason', TRUE));
        $match = preg_match('/^01[15-9]\d{8}$/', $wallet);

       //if not valid mobile
        if ($match == 0 || !$match) {

            $this->session->set_flashdata('message', 'The wallet is not valid Mobile no.');
            redirect('blacklist/index');
        }
        $is_blacklisted = $this->db->where('wallet', $wallet)->where('is_blacklisted', 1)->get('customers')->num_rows();

       //if already blacklisted
        if ($is_blacklisted > 0) {

            $this->session->set_flashdata('message', 'This wallet is already in blacklist');
            redirect('blacklist/index');
        }

        $this->form_validation->set_rules('reason', 'Reason', 'required');
        if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {// if invalid form
            $this->nuts_lib->view_loader('user', 'blacklist', $data);
            return;
        } else {
            $user_id = (int) $this->session->user_id;

            $query = $this->db->where('wallet', $wallet)->where('is_blacklisted', 0)->get('customers');
            $result = $query->result_array();
            if (count($result) > 0) {// if exist uppdate
                $customer_id = (int) $result[0]['id'];
                $blacklist = array(
                    'is_blacklisted' => 1,
                    'blacklist_meta' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s') . '|' . $user_id . '|' . $reason
                );
                $this->db->where('id', $customer_id)->update('customers', $blacklist);
            } else {// insert
                $new_blacklist = array(
                    'wallet' => $wallet,
                    'is_blacklisted' => 1,
                    'blacklist_meta' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s') . '|' . $user_id . '|' . $reason
                );
                $this->db->insert('customers', $new_blacklist);
            }
            $this->session->set_flashdata('message', 'Successfully Blacklisted');
            redirect('blacklist');
        }
    }
}

From this customer method redirecting to following index method when error

public function index() {
    $data['title'] = 'Black List Management';

    $this->nuts_lib->view_loader('user', 'blacklist', $data);
}

In my view file (user/blacklist.php)

$message = $this->session->flashdata('message');
if (isset($message)) {
     echo '<div class="alert alert-info">' . $message . '</div>';
}

So when get $error its showing flashdata nicely, But problem is when get same error next time (after submitting form) then flashdata not show anymore.

What I have tried so far is CodeIgniter flashdata not working after redirect

I need to show flashdata message evry time when get $error

Add this construct function in your email sent controller:

public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        $this->session->keep_flashdata('message');
    }

Finally it works after a long effort. All you have to do is use $this->session->keep_flashdata('message') with $this->session->unset_userdata('message')

here is my solution (view file)

    <?php
    $message = $this->session->flashdata('message');
    if (isset($message)) {
        echo '<div class="alert alert-info">' . $message . '</div>';
         $this->session->unset_userdata('message');
    }

    ?>

After that in my controller construct function

 public function __construct() {
    parent::__construct();
    .....
    $this->session->keep_flashdata('message');
}

it works in each error. still have some silly issue but working nicely so far

This is how you set Flash message in CI

$this->session->set_flashdata('message','number is not valid');
redirect('blacklist/index');  //Redirect after setting flash message

After Redirect In your view page create DIV

<div class="confirm-div alert alert-info"></div>

Add this before </body >

<script>
    // assumes you're using jQuery
    $(document).ready(function() {
    $('.confirm-div').hide();
    <?php if($this->session->flashdata('message')){ ?>
    $('.confirm-div').html('<?php echo $this->session->flashdata('message'); ?>').show();
    <?php } ?>
    });

</script>

I do this on most projects I build in CI. This is how I do it (The HTML markup is for Foundation);

The controller:

$this->session->set_flashdata('error', 'Invalid registration number');
redirect();

The view:

if ($error = $this->session->flashdata('error')) {
    echo '<div data-alert class="alert-box alert">';
        if (is_array($error))
        {
            foreach($error as $e)
            {
                echo '<p class="error">' . $e . '</p>';
            }
        }
        else
        {
            echo $error;
        }
        echo '<a href="#" class="close">&times;</a>';
    echo '</div>';
}

Hope this helps.

Instead of getting flash message in view you can get it into your controller and pass it into your view

Controller

 <?php
    if($error){
        $this->session->set_flashdata('message','number is not valid');
        redirect('blacklist/index');
    }

    function index()
    {

    $error = $this->session->flashdata('message');// get you flash message

    $data = array();// create array

    //...

    $data['message'] = $error;// pass you message to array
    $this->load->view('someview',$data);// pass your message to your view
    }
    ?>

View

// And in your view file
<?php if($message): 
echo '<div class="alert alert-info">' . $message . '</div>';
 endif; ?>

The problem you are facing is a quite a simple one. It will only display for the first time because it will not check for the second time if the error comes in. The reason behind it is you have placed the flash data in a IF ..ELSE statement..which will only work for only single time.

Try this one:

<?php if($this->session->flashdata('message')):?>
       <div class="alert alert-success" role="alert">
            <?php echo $this->session->flashdata('message');?> 
       </div>
<?php endif ?>

I think this will work for you ...

Try this.. 

$message = $this->session->flashdata('message');
if (isset($message)) {
 echo '<div class="alert alert-info">' . $message . '</div>';
 $this->session->unset_userdata('message');
}
