When a user is logged in, and they visit the /login route (alias to /auth/login) I want to change the default redirectPath from /home to /dashboard.
I have set
protected $redirectPath = '/dashboard';
in my AuthController as I have done with the
protected $redirectTo = '/dashboard';
however this doesn't work. How should I go about this?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that property is only used in postLogin and postRegister methods.
What you'd want to do is edit the RedirectIfAuthenticated aka guest middleware, located at app/Http/Middleware/RedirectIfAuthenticated.php and change the handle method to
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if ($this->auth->check())
{
return new RedirectResponse(url('/dashboard'));
}
return $next($request);
}
@toniperic that's the one thank you, I knew I had seen it somewhere.
I'm changing that same line and not having any luck...
@mstnorris - it's really working for you?
