Laravel - Route with multiple function - forms

Question

I have a problem with making a page to allow people to edit their profile, the thing is that I have 3 form on one page (one for profile settings, second for social settings and the 3rd for the account settings) and I made 3 controllers to control each one, the problem is that I can't call 3 controllers at the same time for one route...
here is my profile.blade.php:
{!! Form::model($user, ['action' => ['ProfileController#updateProfile', 'id' => $user->id], 'method' => 'PUT']) !!}
...Some input to edit username, name, description settings...
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::model($user, ['action' => ['ProfileController#updateSocial', 'id' => $user->id], 'method' => 'PUT']) !!}
...Some input to set link to their social account...
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::model($user, ['action' => ['ProfileController#updateSettings', 'id' => $user->id], 'method' => 'PUT']) !!}
...Some input to update password or email...
{!! Form:close() !!}
Here is my web.php (routes):
Route::get('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#index')->name('profile');
Route::put('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateProfile');
Route::put('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateSocial');
Route::put('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateSettings');
And here is my ProfileController:
public function updateProfile(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
$user->fname=$request->input('fname');
$user->lname=$request->input('lname');
$user->profile_title=$request->input('profile_title');
$user->profile_resume=$request->input('profile_resume');
$user->save();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
public function updateSocial(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
$user->perso_site=$request->input('perso_site');
$user->linkedin=$request->input('linkedin');
$user->twitter=$request->input('twitter');
$user->save();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
public function updateSettings(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
$user->password=$request->input('password');
$user->email=$request->input('email');
$user->save();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
The thing is that all of those 3 forms are on the same page, and I get an error If I call the 3 functions at the same time
I tried with only one function, it work, everything is ok but with one function, only one form is working, I hope I will find some help, It's been almost 2 hours that I'm blocked with this problem..
So in conclusion: I have 3 forms on the same page, I need these 3 functions to make them work, but I can't call 3 functions for only one route.

Answer 1

Seperate your url's and set your Routes like taht:
Route::get('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#index')->name('profile');
Route::post('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateProfile')->name('update_profile');
Route::post('/profile/social/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateSocial')->name('update_social');
Route::post('/profile/settings/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#updateSettings')->name('update_settings');
and in the form blade use the route function for detting the action url like that ...
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_profile', ['urlid' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
...Some input to edit username, name, description settings...
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_social', ['urlid' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
...Some input to set link to their social account...
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_settings', ['urlid' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
...Some input to update password or email...
{!! Form:close() !!}

You route should looks like
Route::get('/profile/{urlid}', 'ProfileController#index')->name('profile');
Route::post('/profile/{profile_id}', 'ProfileController#updateProfile')->name('update_profile');
Route::post('/profile/{social_id}', 'ProfileController#updateSocial')->name('update_social');
Route::post('/profile/{settings_id}', 'ProfileController#updateSettings')->name('update_settings');
And your form in blade
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_profile', ['profile_id' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
//....
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_social', ['social_id' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
//....
{!! Form:close() !!}
{!! Form::open(['url' => route('update_settings', ['settings_id' => $user->id]), 'method' => 'post', 'files' => 'true', 'enctype' => "multipart/form-data"]) !!}
//....
{!! Form:close() !!}
In your function
public function updateProfile(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$data = $request->all();
return $data; //check what you pass from the form...
//then after remove return
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
if($user)
{
$user->fname=$data['fname'];
$user->lname=$data['lname']
$user->profile_title=$data['profile_title']
$user->profile_resume=$data['profile_resume']
$user->update();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
return "User not found";
}
And the first form for you: https://pastebin.com/JznW20iy
Your second two form: https://pastebin.com/NuDTtvFR
and function
public function updateSocial(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$data = $request->all();
return $data; //check what you pass from the form...
//then after remove return
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
if($user)
{
$user->perso_site=$data['perso_site'];
$user->linkedin=$data['linkedin']
$user->twitter=$data['twitter']
$user->update();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
return "User not found";
}
public function updateSettings(Request $request, $urlid)
{
$data = $request->all();
return $data; //check what you pass from the form...
//then after remove return
$user = User::findOrFail($urlid);
if($user)
{
$user->email=$data['email'];
$user->password=$data['newPass']
$user->update();
return view('profile')->with([
'user' => $user
]);
}
return "User not found";
}
