Changing the Laravel redirect location after registration not working - Laravel 5.6


I changed protected $redirectTo = '/home'; to protected $redirectTo = '/dashboard'; in RegisterController.php, But it's not working. Redirection is working fine for LoginController.php. I changed /home to /dashboard in possible everywhere. Why after registration the redirection url not working, would someone help me please? (sorry for my bad english).

RegisterController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\User;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\RegistersUsers;

class RegisterController extends Controller
{
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Register Controller
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This controller handles the registration of new users as well as their
| validation and creation. By default this controller uses a trait to
| provide this functionality without requiring any additional code.
|
*/

use RegistersUsers;

/**
 * Where to redirect users after registration.
 *
 * @var string
 */
protected $redirectTo = '/dashboard';

/**
 * Create a new controller instance.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function __construct()
{
    $this->middleware('guest');
}

/**
 * Get a validator for an incoming registration request.
 *
 * @param  array  $data
 * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator
 */
protected function validator(array $data)
{
    return Validator::make($data, [
        'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
        'email' => 'required|string|email|max:255|unique:users',
        'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
    ]);
}

/**
 * Create a new user instance after a valid registration.
 *
 * @param  array  $data
 * @return \App\User
 */
protected function create(array $data)
{
    return User::create([
        'name' => $data['name'],
        'email' => $data['email'],
        'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
    ]);
  }
}

Solution

  • Override redirectPath() in your register controller

    protected function redirectPath()
    {
      if (Auth::user()->role==0) {
        return '/dashboard';
      } else {
        return '/home';
      }
    }
    

    or you can redirect 'home' rout to 'dashboard'

    Route::get('home', function(){
    return redirect(url(/dashboard));
    });
