I am trying to correct my code of the searchresult function of my controller so my concern is that when I paginate the search result or make form validation, I get the following error message : The GET method is not supported for this route. Supported methods: POST. so if you can help me, I want to change my code from returning the view to returning the route. here is my code
Route:
Route::get('/post/searchpost', 'PostsController@index')->name('index');
Route::post('/post/search_result', 'PostsController@searchresult')->name('searchresult');
Blades //index
<div class="posts">
<h1>Posts</h1>
<div class="sreach">
<form action="{{route('searchresult', app()->getLocale())}}" method="POST">
{{ csrf_field()}}
<div class="form-row">
<div class="form-group col-md-2">
<label class="lbl" for="cat_id">title</label>
<select class="form-control" id="cat_id" name="cat_id">
<option value="" selected></option>
@foreach ($categoriesas $cat)
<option value="{{$cat->id}}">{{$cat->cat_mame}}</option>
@endforeach
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group col-md-2">
<label class="lbl" for="title">Post title</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="title" name="title">

<div class="form-group col-md-2">

</div>
<table id="posts">

Controller
public function index()
{
$ctegories= Category::all();
return view('search')->with('posts', Post::all())->with('ctegories', $ctegories);
}
public function searchresult(Request $request)
{
$title= $request->title;
$content= $request->content;
$cat_id= $request->cat_id;
$posts= Post::where('title', 'like', '%' . $title. '%')
->whereHas('category', function(Builder $query) use ($sujet_id){
$query->where('id', $cat_id);
})
->orderBy('created_at','desc')
->get();
//for form dropdown categories
$categories= Category::all();
if(count ($posts) > 0)
{
//this what i want to change from view to route with those parameters
return view('searchresult')
->withDetails($posts)->withQuery($title)
->withCategories($categories);
} else {
return redirect()->route('index')->with('success','search not found');
}
}
So otherwise the function works perfectly and I get the data i will appreciate your help thank you
