use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class SubCategory extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
    protected $fillable =['name'];
}

my migration file for subcategory migration

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateSubCategoriesTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('sub_categories', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('name');
            $table->integer('category_id');
            $table->timestamps();
        });

how can i solve this

Answer 1

changing the edit function in the controller fixed the problem

public function edit($id)
{
  
    $subCategory  = Subcategory::find($id);
    return view('subcategory/edit', compact('subCategory'));
}
