User Auth not persisting within Laravel package

Question

This is my first attempt at a laravel package and have run into an issue where Auth::attempt($credentials) works within my login controller, but upon redirection to a protected

Answer 1

The default behavior of the method attempt is to not keep the user logged.

You should change it to:

if (Auth::attempt(array('email' => $email, 'password' => $password), false, true))

This way you will set remember as false and login as true.
