I can’t pass values from one page to another with Laravel

Question

I have a problem with Laravel that I can’t solve, and I’ve tried many things: What I want is to take the values that are on one page and send to another on a form.

The edit button in a list has the following code:

<a class="dropdown-item" href="{{ route('people.edit', $people) }}">{{ __('Editar') }}</a> 

That is the route:

Route::put('peoples', ['as' => 'peoples.edit', 'uses' => 'PeopleController@edit']);

That’s the code on the controller

public function edit(People $people)
{
    return view('profilePeople.edit', compact('people'));
}

This is the class code

<?php namespace App; use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model; class People extends Model { protected $table = 'people'; protected $fillable = ['name', 'email',]; protected $guarded = ['id']; }

This is the code where an input should retrieve past values.

<input type="text" name="name" id="input-name" class="form-control form-control-alternative{{ $errors->has('name') ? ' is-invalid' : '' }}" placeholder="{{ __('Nome') }}" value="{{ old('name', $people->name) }}" required autofocus>

There is no error but the values are not passed.

I do not know if with this information someone can help me, but just send me the information you need and I will add.

From now on, thank you!

Their routes:

// exibe a view com o formulario para editar a pessoa
Route::get('/peoples/{id}/edit', 'PeopleController@edit');
// atualiza a pessoa no banco de dados
Route::put('/peoples/{id}', 'PeopleController@update');

Your button:

<a href="{{ url('/peoples/' . $people->id . '/edit') }}">
    {{ __('Editar') }}
</a>

Your controller:

public function edit($id)
{
    $people = People::findOrFail($id);

    return view('profilePeople.edit', compact('people'));
}

public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
    $data = $request->all();
    $people = People::findOrFail($id);

    try {
        DB::transaction(function() use ($data) {
            $people->update($data);
        });
    }catch(\Exception $exception){
        abort(500);
    }

    return redirect('/peoples/' . $id);
}

profilePeople > edit.blade.php

<form action="{{ url('/peoples/' . $people->id) }}" method="post">
    @csrf
    @method('put')

    <!-- Seus campos -->
</form>
