when trying to view a specific blog article i get the error Trying to get property 'title' of non-object here is my controller controller code

  public function theblog(Request $req, $slug){
    $blog = blog::find($slug);
    DB::table("blogs")->where('slug', "$slug")->increment('views');
    return view('myblog',compact('blog'));  
}

CodePudding user response：

  public function theblog(Request $req, $slug){
    $blog = blog::where('slug', $slug)->firstOrFail();
    DB::table("blogs")->where('slug', $slug)->increment('views');
    return view('myblog',compact('blog'));  
}

Some tips.

your primary key is unlikely to be 'slug' so you need to use a where
don't quote php parameters
your classes should start with an uppercase, ie Blog not blog
you should probably only increment views once per user

CodePudding user response：

public function theblog(Request $req, $slug){ $blog = blog::find($slug);
dd($slug); 
 DB::table("blogs")->where('slug', "$slug")->increment('views'); return view('myblog',compact('blog')); }

Check if there is value for $blog...if it is null(that is the problem) then you should check you DB?
