<textarea class="form-control" rows="5" name="body">{{$post->body}}</textarea>

public function edit($id)
{
$post=Post::find($id);
return view('post.edit',compact('post'));
}
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
$post=Post::find($id);
$post->title = $request->input('title');
$post->body = $request->input('body');
$post->save();
return redirect('/posts')->with('success','Post Updated');
}

namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Post extends Model
{
//

Change
<form class="col-md-6" method="PUT" action="/posts">
to
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="/posts">
@method('PUT')
or
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="/posts">
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="PUT">
Ref: https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/routing#form-method-spoofing
Put in the columns that's editable in model.
HEllo @bashy Not work -- this error show
No message
@jlrdw that does not apply here, especially due to the way he's saving.
@towhid the Symfony \ Component \ HttpKernel \ Exception \ MethodNotAllowedHttpException is always due to sending the wrong type of request to an endpoint (route). Like you are sending a PUT request to a Route::get(), or something.
Since you're using PUT, you need a
Route::put('/posts', 'YourController@update');
@jlrdw use your suggesion like ,
protected $fillable = [
'title', 'body'
];
but not work still same error
Symfony \ Component \ HttpKernel \ Exception \ MethodNotAllowedHttpException No message
try this
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="{{route('posts.update',$post->id)}}">
@method('PUT')
@Cronix this is my route link
Route::resource('posts','postController');
Also, you need to add the id of the post you're editing in the form action.
<form class="col-md-6" method="post" action="/posts/{{ $post->id }}">
which is why it's going to the wrong endpoint. You probably don't need that route I suggested earlier since it should be covered by the Route::resource() route, but you do need the id of the post that's getting updated.
See the chart here on how resource controllers are layed out, the http verbs associated with the actions, and the parameters that each requires: https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/controllers#resource-controllers
@rin4ik shoe this error when iam trying to click edit button
ErrorException (E_ERROR)
Missing required parameters for [Route: posts.update] [URI: posts/{post}]. (View: C:\project\temp\resources\views\post\edit.blade.php)
Clear browser cache and temp view files in between each changing code.
@towhid I updated reply
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="{{route('posts.update',$post->id)}}">
@method('PUT')
@rin4ik this is message show
@method('PUT')
The page has expired due to inactivity.
Please refresh and try again.
parameters should be in an array.
from rin4ik :
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="{{route('posts.update',['post' =>$post->id])}}">
@method('PUT')
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="{{route('posts.update',$post->id)}}">
@method('PUT')
@csrf
@Vilfago you are wrong
Or just do it like I showed on the previous page many posts ago lol
<form class="col-md-6" method="post" action="/posts/{{ $post->id }}">
they piled on their answers after I posted that, and edited their answers to reflect adding the ID. Looking at you, @rin4ik lol
@Cronix I didn't see your reply about post id at all. please respect others . don't worry I don't need best reply award. I changed my reply after this error
ErrorException (E_ERROR)
Missing required parameters for [Route: posts.update] [URI: posts/{post}]. (View: C:\project\temp\resources\views\post\edit.blade.php)
@Cronix you are like little child
Oh, respectful like this?
@Vilfago you are wrong
@Cronix I meant his reply was incorrect
@towhid add crsf field
<form class="col-md-6" method="POST" action="{{route('posts.update',$post->id)}}">
@method('PUT')
@csrf
This escalated quickly :P
I love just passing the model to routes
{{ route('posts.update', $post) }}
@bashy yes I like it too , but in controller he expects id :(
public function update(Request $request, $id)
hang on you lot, I've not proposed a different way yet...
@rin4ik Noted, and no problem for the way you tell me that.
But it's how I always passed argument to route, and it works for me.
I take that from the documentation
Route::get('user/{id}/profile', function ($id) {
//
})->name('profile');
$url = route('profile', ['id' => 1]);
https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/routing#named-routes
But maybe, only for named routes ?
@bashy yes I know that :)
@Vilfago your variant also correct. when we need to pass two variables we have to use like u use.
