Just using the HTML form, how can I submit a form to a store function in the resource controller, if the route is /register. Please help, I've tried inserting 'post' method in the form tag,it's not working. Meanwhile the name of the store route is customer.store. I just don't know how to go about it.

  • Set up a route to handle the `POST` request that you are sending via `/register` to the appropriate controller and function... What have you tried so far? Do you have any code that we can help you debug? – James Jul 11 '16 at 01:37

Like James said, simply create a post-route, to which your form-submit points. Then set this route to your store-function in your controller. If you have the route::auth() in your routes, put this to the end. This one catches normally catches your /register route.

Your form:

<form method="post" action="{{ url('/register') }}">
    <!-- Don't forget your csrf -->
    {!! csrf_field() !!}

    <!-- Rest of your form -->
    <button type="submit">Register</button>
</form>

Your routes.php

// GET
Route::get('/register', function(){
    return view('register-form');
});
//or
Route::get('/show-form', 'FormController@showForm');

//POST
Route::post('/submitted-form', 'FormController@register');

//GET and POST combined
Route::match(['get', 'post'], '/form-handler', 'FormController@formHandler');
//And finally
route::auth();

But maybe you could hook in the AuthController. This controller normally handles the registrations (take a look at the registermethod in combination with the createmethod).
