Laravel, common page for guest and user, session table user_id null

Question

In session table, user id is null when user visit guest page.

Route::get('/', [HomeController::class, 'index',])->name('home');

Route::group(['middleware' => ['auth:user']], function () {

    Route::get('/dashboard', [HomeController::class, 'dashboard'])->name('dashboard');

});

When user visit dashboard, session table has user id and same user goes to home page user id is now set as null in session table.

Do you manually save session data to table? If yes, why don't you use Laravel's built in session helper function to achieve what you want to do? — Mahammad Isgandarli, Mar 17 '21 at 08:47

Maybe this can help

Route::middleware('auth')->group(function () {
    Route::get('/dashboard', [HomeController::class, 'dashboard'])->name('dashboard');
});

Problem is home page not dashboard, home page is for both user and guest. – parth Mar 17 '21 at 09:25
Seen from your code, saying that the home page doesn't require authentication. so home page can be accessed for both user and guest. maybe you need `@auth user activity @endauth` or `@guest guest activity @endguest` ref: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/blade#authentication-directives – Guna Wirawan Mar 17 '21 at 09:54
This is not about the blade, its about session table. – parth Mar 17 '21 at 10:19
