laravel redirect to url after login

Question

I have trouble with redirecting to an url after login. The situation is that someone visits a blog post, and needs to login before adding a comment. So the user clicks on the login link and logs in on "auth/login", and is always redirected to "/home".

I want the user to be redirected to the blogpost when an url is set like "auth/login?redirect=url/to/blogpost"

I have the following Middleware:

app\Http\Middleware\RedirectIfAuthenticated

<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Closure;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Guard;

class RedirectIfAuthenticated
{
    /**
     * The Guard implementation.
     *
     * @var Guard
     */
    protected $auth;

    /**
     * Create a new filter instance.
     *
     * @param  Guard  $auth
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct(Guard $auth)
    {
        $this->auth = $auth;
    }

    /**
     * Handle an incoming request.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @param  \Closure  $next
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle($request, Closure $next)
    {
        if ($this->auth->check()) {
            return redirect('/home');
        }

        return $next($request);
    }
}

app\Http\Middleware\Authenticate

<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Closure;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Guard;

class Authenticate
{
    /**
     * The Guard implementation.
     *
     * @var Guard
     */
    protected $auth;

    /**
     * Create a new filter instance.
     *
     * @param  Guard  $auth
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct(Guard $auth)
    {
        $this->auth = $auth;
    }

    /**
     * Handle an incoming request.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @param  \Closure  $next
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle($request, Closure $next)
    {
        if ($this->auth->guest()) {
            if ($request->ajax()) {
                return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
            } else {
                return redirect()->guest('auth/login');
            }
        }

        return $next($request);
    }
}

Why don't you use the intended method on redirector? Read about this in docs

The intended method on the redirector will redirect the user to the URL they were attempting to access before being caught by the authentication filter. A fallback URI may be given to this method in case the intended destination is not available.

I've decided to copy and paste the getLogin function of the trait AuthenticatesUsers into my AuthController. I overwrite the function AND keep the trait as is.

I've just added

\Session::put('url.intended',\URL::previous());

If you're using standard authentication from Laravel 5, find a app/Http/Controllers/Auth/AuthController.php file and change $redirectPath to this:

protected $redirectPath = '/url/to/blogpost';
