Method Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection::likes does not exist. When trying to count the number of likes

[JamieCee20]

On my blade page I have {{ $post->likes()->count() }} to display the number of current likes however when I refresh the page I get the error: Method Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection::likes does not exist.

To my understanding Im not using that so unsure why it wont find the function im looking for.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is in my post Controller

So, $post is undefined? JamieCee20 <[e-mail]>于2020年7月31日 周五上午1:06写道：

No I have it as $verified->likers() - >count()

Plz, explain where is the $post defined? paste the controller code and blade template code.

[JamieCee20]

So Due to the way my project pans out, $verified is my post. This is my controller

public function show(Verified $verified)
{
    $user = User::find($verified->user_id);
    return view('verifieds.show', compact('user','verified'));
}

[JamieCee20]

And my blade was like this:

a class="likeButton" href=" $user->toggleLike($verified) "> i class="fas fa-thumbs-up mr-2">

$verified->likers()->count(

Hi, @JamieCee20, I read your code, this error is impossible because $verified will always be an instance of Verified . So please double check your logic to see if there is a variable overwrite.

[JamieCee20]

Verified is still posts and doesnt overrun anywhere. I have Post which is user posts but verified is the same functionality just for verified Users, (May be a less complicated scenario but im still very new to laravel).

[JamieCee20]

So surely if I set my controller to $post = Verified::find({id}) then it will still be the same outcome?

[JamieCee20]

/**
 * Display the specified resource.
 *
 * @param  \App\Verified  $verified
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function show(Verified $verified)
{
    $user = User::find($verified->user_id);
    $likes = $user->likes()->with('likeable')->paginate(20);
    return view('verifieds.show', compact('user','verified', 'likes'));
}

This is my controller, verifieds is just a different post so imagine all $verified is $post.

My show.blade.php has this

                                @foreach($likes as $Like)
                                    {{$like->likeable}}
                                @endforeach

to display my information.

and the error I get is Class name must be a valid object or a string
