Custom redirect after login / Register about tall

[techguydev]

it looks like that inside the Register controller the system is not able to get the Session previous.url variable.

This is how I have managed to make it work:

In the register and login components I have set

public previewsUrl='/'

 public function Mount ()
    {
       $this->previousUrl=\Session::get('_previous.url');

    }

 public function authenticate()
    {
        $credentials = $this->validate([
            'email' => ['required', 'email'],
            'password' => ['required'],
        ]);

        if (!Auth::attempt($credentials, $this->remember)) {
            $this->addError('email', trans('auth.failed'));

            return;
        }

        redirect()->to($this->previousUrl);

    }

@techguydev Thank you so much for solving this. That worked great.
I had to make 2 small edits:

Changed public previewsUrl='/' to public $previousUrl='/';

And then used Session like this:

public function mount ()
    {
        $this->previousUrl=\session('_previous.url');
    }

Works perfect for Login and Registration!
Thanks Again!

Hi @techguydev - the Livewire components with this preset are published so you can just change the redirect in the Login component class to redirect()->back() instead of redirect(route('home'))

On this note I've just changed the default behaviour to redirect to the intended route after login and registration #50

[techguydev]

Thanks @imliam I appreciate it.

@imliam I have tried making the changes you suggested but it is not redirecting to the previos page

[techguydev]

it is just not working for me I even try to test if there is some session info in the mount method of the register component and it always returns null @ryangjchandler @imliam

@daugaard47 nice to hear it worked for you too.
