title: How to: mass assign an update in Laravel 4?
body: <p>This is an for internal app, mass assignment security is not an issue in this case.</p>
  
  <p>I'm dealing with very large (numerous) form fields, so mass assigning the user edits would be great. Mass assignment seems to work fine with 'create()' but not with doing a find &amp; save.</p>
  
  <p>This is what I have:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$post_data = Input::all();
  $formobj = HugeForm::find($id);
  $formobj-&gt;save($post_data);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I go about it? I'd rather not specify many dozens of form inputs.</p>
