Laravel Model Binding missing relationships - laravel

Question

I'm trying to convert to Model binding on a Model built on customer orders. My route:
Route::model('order', 'App\Models\Order');
Route::resource('orders', 'OrderController');
This allows me to pull up an Order to edit through my controller (also grabbing statuses to populate a table and passing the logged in user):
public function index(Order $order)
{
$orders = $order->get();
return view('orders.index', compact('orders'));
}
My orders.index will display $order->id properly but when I try to loop through the Actions, which is connected by a hasMany relationship, nothing shows. Or I try to show $order->user->firstname which belongs to User by user_id.
#foreach( $order->actions as $action )
{{ $action->type->type }}
#endforeach
From my Action model:
public function order()
{
return $this->belongsTo('\App\Models\Order', 'order_id');
}
From my Order model:
public function actions()
{
return $this->hasMany('\App\Models\Action', 'order_id');
}
Here's an excerpt from a dump of the Order:

Answer 1

As you compact orders in your controller you should use orders in your Blade template:
#foreach( $orders->actions as $action )
{{ $action->type->type }}
#endforeach
You should be also aware that Order in your index method in controller have nothing in common with Route Model Binding. For index it won't be used at all.
For other methods (show/edit/delete) it won't work because you make a binding with wrong name. It should be:
Route::model('orders', 'App\Models\Order');
and not
Route::model('order', 'App\Models\Order');

Answer 2

Model name (MoneyEntry)
Changed from
Route::resource('moneyentries', 'MoneyEntryController');
to
Route::resource('moneyEntries', 'MoneyEntryController');
Did a trick.
