I have two issues
first,
How can I use pagination In ($Instructors = $university->insturctors;) ?
Should I make it like this
($Instructors = Instructor::where('university_id', $university->id)->paginate(5);)
second, after making pagination work when user search and go to the second or third page my search function fall and all Instructors appear
public function create (Universities $university) {
$Instructors = $university->insturctors;
if (request('search')){
$Instructors = $university->insturctors()->when(request('search'), function ($builder, $search) {
$builder->where('name', 'like', '%'. $search . '%');
})->paginate(3);
}
return view('university', [
'University' => $university,
'insturctors' => $Instructors,
]);
}
public function create(Universities $university)
{
$instructors = $university->insturctors()->when(request('search'), function ($query, $search) {
$query->where('name', 'like', "%{$search}%");
})->paginate(3)->withQueryString();
return view('university', compact('university', 'instructors'));
}

@MichalOravec Thank You it work, Can you help me with my last Question. How can I paginate array ? $Instructors = $arranged; $arranged is array that contains my Instructors with some custom edits. I can show you the code why did i use array but it's like 50 lines.
@VETO87 for array you slice:
@jlrdw I found this method to paginate my array
public function create()
{
$Instructors = $this->paginate($arranged);
return view('college', [
'Instructors' => $Instructors,
]);
}
public function paginate($items, $perPage = 2, $page = null, $options = [])
{
$page = $page ?: (Paginator::resolveCurrentPage() ?: 1);
$items = $items instanceof Collection ? $items : Collection::make($items);
return new LengthAwarePaginator($items->forPage($page, $perPage), $items->count(), $perPage,
$page, $options);
}
Which seems the best solution but there's tiny issue when I try to go to the second page or third ... it redirect me to http://localhost/?search=john&page=2 it should be like this http://localhost/KAU/FCIT?search=john&page=2
