How to make a delete request with Laravel
It's better to change your route to this mode:
Route::resource('tags','TagController');
You should register a resourceful route to the controller. This single route declaration creates multiple routes to handle a variety of RESTful actions on the Tag resource. Remember, since HTML forms can't make PUT, PATCH, or DELETE requests, you will need to add a hidden _method field to spoof these HTTP verbs.
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE">
or add this in your form
{{method_field('DELETE')}}
You may try this (Notice the hidden _method
input):
<form method="post" action="http://***/public/deleteTag/{{$tag->id}}">
{!! Form::token() !!}
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE">
<button type="submit">delete</button>
</form>
Check Form Method Spoofing.
Update:
In the latest versions of Laravel, it's possible to use blade directives for csrf
and method
in the form, for example:
<form method="post" action="...">
@csrf
@method('DELETE')
<button type="submit">delete</button>
</form>
