This article summarizes how to redirect to a specific location when validation fails in Laravel's Register (User Registration).
Laravel 6Premise
I think this use case is quite rare.
When using Laravel's Auth for registration mechanism, if validation fails
As written in vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Auth/RegistersUsers.php,
public function register(Request $request)
{
$this->validator($request->all())->validate();
event(new Registered($user = $this->create($request->all())));
$this->guard()->login($user);
return $this->registered($request, $user)
?: redirect($this->redirectPath());
}in this function,
->validate();is present, so the automatic redirect feature will work.
Conclusion
Therefore, we will override this function.
App/Http/Controllers/Auth/RegisterController.php
public function register(Request $request)
{
$validation = $this->validator($request->all());
if($validation->fails()) {
// Specify the redirect here
return redirect()
// You can change the route part to your preferred location
->route('register')
->withErrors($validation)
->withInput();
}
event(new Registered($user = $this->create($request->all())));
$this->guard()->login($user);
return $this->registered($request, $user)
?: redirect($this->redirectPath());
}Once you understand where the redirect process is taking place, all you have to do is override (overwrite) the function.
Summary
That's all.
