Also you arent closing the array inside create() correctly
$post = Post::create([
'user_id' => auth()->user()->id,
'title' => $this->title,
'category_id' => $this->category,
'body' => $this->body,
'slug' => Str::slug($this->title),
]); //closing goes here
$image = $this->photo->storeAs('posts/', Str::random(30)),
$post->image = $image,
$post->save(); //remove $this here has well
// session()->flash("message", "Featured image successfully uploaded");

@Kikismedia Good. I suggest that you compare my example with your original and see if you understand the difference. Feel free to ask questions if you dont :)

or
$post = Post::create([
'user_id' => auth()->user()->id,
'title' => $this->title,
'category_id' => $this->category,
'body' => $this->body,
'slug' => Str::slug($this->title),
'image' => $this->photo->storeAs('posts/', Str::random(30)) ?? null,
]);
