Middleware, how to redirect after check Laravel 5

Question

I need after check if user is logged as editor, to redirect to profile page...

Here is my code:

Answer 1

I found this to be a less code and less decisions for redirecting users based on roles, Put this in your AuthController.php

protected function authenticated( $user)
{

    if($user->user_group == '0') {
        return redirect('/dashboard');
    }

    return redirect('my-account');
}

Answer 2

Go to Kernel.php. It's in app\http. Try to find protected $routeMiddleware in that array you need to add this

'admin' => \App\Http\Middleware\AdminMiddleware::class

After that it should work fine. Hope this helps anyone who faces the same problem.

Answer 3

Where did you register your middleware in App\Http\Kernel?

Is it in protected $middleware = [] or protected $routeMiddleware = [] ?

If registered in $middleware it will run on each very request thereby causing infinite loop, if so use only $routeMiddleware
