What does your CategoriesController look like?
The second line of the error you are getting is
Action App\Http\Controllers\Admin\CategoriesController@store not defined
@ghvinashvili it looks like there is no store method on your CategoriesController.
Also, I mentioned to you last night, that you will need to change your route as you have a lowercase "admin" whereas your directory uses "Admin". Thanks to @arabsight for pointing that out again.
look like

Your route isn't set up correctly.
Run php artisan route:list and then paste the output here so I can see.
'admin\CategoriesController' should be 'Admin\CategoriesController' in your routes file
@mstnorris my route is
Route::post('admin/categories/order','admin\CategoriesController@order');
Route::resource('admin/categories','admin\CategoriesController');
Route::get('admin/categories/{categories}/delete','admin\CategoriesController@delete');
@ghvinashvili that isn't the output from the command I said to run.
Open up your terminal and run
php artisan route::list
You will get a big table of all of the routes in your project.
@arabsight and @mstnorris thanks you. problem is admin. i change admin to Admin :)
@ghvinashvili I mentioned that yesterday, I thought you had changed it. Glad it helped.
@mstnorris I am new in php and laravel. and i have many question. sorry all
@ghvinashvili don't apologise, ask away :)
Please or to participate in this conversation.
