this is my code in controller:

class AdminClassroomsController extends Controller { public function index() {

         $classrooms = Classroom::paginate(5);
         return view('admin.admin_classrooms', compact('classrooms'));

                   }

public function searches(Request $request) {

     $query = Classroom::where('name', $request->input('name'));

    // if ($request->has('name'))
    // {
    //     $query->where('name', 'LIKE', '%' . $request->input('name') . '%');
    //     //$query->where('description', 'LIKE', '%' . $request->input('name') . '%');
    // }
  
   if ($request->has('name'))
    {
        $query->where(function ($q) use ($request)
        {
            return $q->where('name', 'LIKE', $request->input('name') . '%')
                ->orWhere('description', 'LIKE', '%' . $request->input('name') . '%');
        });
    }

     $query->get();
    $classrooms = $query->get();
    return view('admin.admin_classrooms', compact('classrooms'));
}
