Can I ask what have I done wrong in my LoginRequest.php where I've set a condition to redirect to a custom login page if there is any sort of error in the login process? I have my codes as below:
<?php namespace App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Requests\Request;
class LoginRequest extends Request
{
/**
* Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
*
* @return bool
*/
public function authorize()
{
return true;
}
/**
* Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
*
* @return array
*/
public function rules()
{
return [
'login_email' => 'required',
'login_password' => 'required'
];
}
public function messages()
{
return [
'login_email.required' => 'Email cannot be blank',
'login_password.required' => 'Password cannot be blank'
];
}
public function redirect()
{
return redirect()->route('login');
}
}
The code is supposed to redirect users who login from a nav bar login form to the main login page, if there are any errors, but it doesn't seem to redirect.
if you want to redirect to a specific url, then use protected $redirect
class LoginRequest extends Request
{
protected $redirect = "/login#form1";
// ...
}
or if you want to redirect to a named route, then use $redirectRoute
class LoginRequest extends Request
{
protected $redirectRoute = "session.login";
// ...
}
