The POST method is not supported for this route. Supported methods: GET, HEAD. Laravel

There are multiple ways you can handle this:

  1. If you insist on using PUT you can change the form action to POST and add a hidden method_field that has a value PUTand a hidden csrf field (if you are using blade then you just need to add @csrf_field and {{ method_field('PUT') }}). This way the form would accept the request.

  2. You can simply change the route and form method to POST. It will work just fine since you are the one defining the route and not using the resource group.


I know this is not the solution to OPs post. However, this post is the first one indexed by Google when I searched for answers to this error. For this reason I feel this will benefit others.

The following error...

The POST method is not supported for this route. Supported methods: GET, HEAD.

was caused by not clearing the routing cache

php artisan route:cache

I've seen your code in web.php as follows: Route::post('/edit/{id}','ProjectController@update');

Step 1: remove the {id} random parameter so it would be like this: Route::post('/edit','ProjectController@update');

Step 2: Then remove the @method('PUT') in your form, so let's say we'll just plainly use the POST method

Then how can I pass the ID to my method?

Step 1: make an input field in your form with the hidden attribute for example

<input type="hidden" value="{{$project->id}}" name="id">

Step 2: in your update method in your controller, fetch that ID for example:

$id = $request->input('id');

then you may not use it to find which project to edit

$project = Project::find($id)
//OR
$project = Project::where('id',$id);
