What Laravel version do you use?
In Laravel 5.1 or 5.0 you should edit:
vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers.php
Then you have to edit the postLogin method, inside this method, you can edit what ever.
This if is for Too many login attempts.
if ($throttles && $this->hasTooManyLoginAttempts($request)) {
return $this->sendLockoutResponse($request);
}
If you have to put your code after the user has login correctly, you must edit this IF:
if (Auth::attempt($credentials, $request->has('remember'))) {
}
Example:
/**
* Handle a login request to the application.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function postLogin(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
$this->loginUsername() => 'required', 'password' => 'required',
]);
// If the class is using the ThrottlesLogins trait, we can automatically throttle
// the login attempts for this application. We'll key this by the username and
// the IP address of the client making these requests into this application.
$throttles = $this->isUsingThrottlesLoginsTrait();
if ($throttles && $this->hasTooManyLoginAttempts($request)) {
return $this->sendLockoutResponse($request);
}
$credentials = $this->getCredentials($request);
if (Auth::attempt($credentials, $request->has('remember'))) {
\Session::flash('new_user', 0);
return $this->handleUserWasAuthenticated($request, $throttles);
}
// If the login attempt was unsuccessful we will increment the number of attempts
// to login and redirect the user back to the login form. Of course, when this
// user surpasses their maximum number of attempts they will get locked out.
if ($throttles) {
$this->incrementLoginAttempts($request);
}
return redirect($this->loginPath())
->withInput($request->only($this->loginUsername(), 'remember'))
->withErrors([
$this->loginUsername() => $this->getFailedLoginMessage(),
]);
}
