I am using sentry to authenticate users in laravel 5.3. When the user clicks auth protected route is redirect to the login form. After login, the user is redirected to home page.
How can I configure sentry in manner that the authenticated user is not redirected back to home page but instead to the original destination before login. Kindly assist I seem not to figure it out.
You can use a function called intended
return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
The intended method on the redirector will redirect the user to the URL they were attempting to access before being intercepted by the authentication middleware. A fallback URI may be given to this method in case the intended destination is not available.

Maybe this may help you --
You can try giving the url something like this localhost:8000/something?url=anythingelse so that after login change the redirect path to $_GET['url'].
Use a form rather than link to go to login page. Try this --
<form method="GET" url="{{ url('/some') }}?{{ Request::path() }}" id="login"></form>

I am new to Laravel. I am using Laravel's auth controllers for login/register on my website. After login/register, it will redirect to a dashboard. This is fine.
The problem is when the user (not logged in) submits a particular form. The form submission will take the user to a protected page. The auth system will intercept this (if not logged in) and ask for the user to login and the user can sign in. But after the sign in it won't get redirected to the actual destination. Instead, it goes back to the previous page. I tried the redirectto->intended() way in the middleware. It still does not work.
Found the solution. Use HTTP session. I am not sure if this is the best method.
POST the form to a route which doesn't need authentication
Validate and store the form data in the session using the controller
Redirect to the protected route where the auth will intercept and ask the user to login
After successful login, redirect to the original destination page using return redirect()->intended('defaultPage');
Access the form data from session inside the blade view
I am not storing any sensitive data in session. I have no idea how secure this method is.
If you have any suggestions please post.
I am using Laravel 5.7. For security reasons, I set my laravel application to automatically logout after one hour inactivity. But I want the user log back in the same page before they got kicked out by the system. I try to use Session, but it only store previous url which is the login page url. How can I retrieve that URL before user got automatically logout?
All you need to do is put this in your logout function.
session(['returnUrl' => url()->previous()]);
And then on login function, redirect user to session('returnUrl') and delete session data with session()->forget('returnUrl')
Use this in your login controller
url()->previous()
I am developing a project using Laravel where we use phpCAS for user authentication. I am using this Laravel package for phpCAS:https://github.com/subfission/cas
After user gets authenticated, i wish to return him/her back to URL from which he/she was redirected to CAS server login.
I used url()->previous(); but it return wrong information in google chrome about referring URL (controller/action).
How can i achieve it? Thanks!
use the intended() method
The intended method on the redirector will redirect the user to the URL they were attempting to access before being intercepted by the authentication middleware. A fallback URI may be given to this method in case the intended destination is not available.
example : return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
I'm using a custom SocialLoginController to log my users with facebook or google in al Laravel 5.3 project
In some cases I send to users an email with info about one change and the URL to the resource, for example https://myweb.com/settings/profile/[the-uuid]
when the user tries to access but is not logged in, he's redirected to the Handler#render() where I send it to login with return redirect()->guest('/login'); and after login with social account I redirect them using return redirect()->intended('/home') but since I don't use the LoginController, the redirection to the requested URL is not working.
Any idea? Thanks
The problem is the request object is lost after redirect the user to login with facebook or google, so I fixed by saving the requested URI in a session variable and then checking if exists after redirect
return Session::get('intended') ? redirect()->to(\Session::get('intended')) : redirect()->to('/expenses');

I used laravel Authentication, I have 2 main pages:
Home: where there should be login and register
And Dashboard, that the user is redirected to after login.
My problem is that the route '/home' is automaticaly being redirected to login page first
This is the correct behaviour. The standard auth-system provides 'auth' middleware. Which prevents unauthenticated users from visiting the /home path. If you register and login. You will get redirected to the /home route.
Take a look at the docs for Authentication and also maybe for middleware.
