What modifications are required in attendance controller in order to save record in table and I can view it on frontend side as well

Answer 1

On your AttendanceController you just show data, not insert data to database, you should get the request data and insert data to database, but first check your blade file, you must make an input for level_id, teacher_id, and student_id
to check your attachment you can use
dd($request);
die();
on your first line AttendanceController function store
public function store(Request $request, $level_id)
{
dd($request);
die();
//get form data
$data = $request->all();
//Create Student record
$students = Student::all();
$levels = Levels::all();
if($level_id){
$levels = Levels::find($level_id);
if($levels){
$attendance = Attendance::with(['student', 'levels'])->first();
return view('admin.attendance.add', compact('students','level_id', 'levels', 'attendance'));
}
}
}
if your system catch the good request
you should try this
public function store(Request $request, $level_id)
{
$levels_id = $request->level_id;
$teachers_id = $request->teacher_id;
$students_id = $request->student_id;
$data = [$levels_id,teachers_id,students_id];
attendance::create($data);
}
there's the code to save data into your laravel project, you should approve my solution
