I am trying to view the community created by users but it gives me "cannot find a Controller Method ".

Answer 1

This can have several causes. Therefore, here is a small checklist:
The controller path is missing from your route:
use App\Http\Controllers\CommunityController; // this line
Route::get('/community/{id}', [CommunityController::class, 'community'])->name('profile.community');
Your CommunityController class name is misspelled
The namespace of the CommunityController is wrong
And then just to be sure, run: php artisan route:clear.
