Session Variable after Login Action

Override this in LoginController:

/**
     * The user has been authenticated.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @param  mixed  $user
     * @return mixed
     */
    protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user)
    {
        //
    }

This method is executed after user has been authenticated to the site.

Hi,

If I use this code,

    protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user)
    {
        $userdata = $request->session()->put('CompanyName', $user->company_name);
    }

I get the following error message

Argument 1 passed to App\Http\Controllers\Auth\LoginController::authenticated() must be an instance of App\Http\Controllers\Auth\Request, instance of Illuminate\Http\Request given, called in C:\xampp\htdocs\mayWaWi\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers.php on

I do not understand that somehow

Why do you need to when the user object is available globally? You can use {{ auth()->user()->company_name }} wherever you want to display the logged in users company_name, and it's already stored in session. So you're basically duplicating data in session by doing this.

I recommend learning PHP before starting with Laravel.

You should import the Illumintate\Http\Request to fix this error. Because Request in the parameter is of that type.
