Redirection does not seem to be working and shows Forbidden error message-CodePudding

I have added a link to my webpage like this:

<a alt="English" href="{{ route('english.version') }}">En</a>

And here is the route english.version:

Route::get('/en', function () {
    redirect(url('https://websitename.com/landing'));
})->name('english.version');

But now whenever I click on the link En, I get this error:

Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource.

So the question is, how can I be able to show /en link, and when users clicked on it, it redirect another url which is https://websitename.com/landing in this case?

CodePudding user response：

It should return from closure then it will redirect you to target.

Route::get('/en', function () {
    return redirect(url('https://websitename.com/landing'));
})->name('english.version');

That's the only issue right now. Please try it and let me know. Thanks
