Form submission not picking up URL route - ebuoe - 03-08-2020
Hello ,
I have created a route for my admin sign in page as described below :
Code:
$routes->get('/control_panel/request_access', "Admin_portal\Access_control::grant_access");From the above you can see that i have a folder "Admin_portal" in my controller folder where I have an "Access_control" controller.
When I visit the URL http://localhost/site_root/public/control_panel/request_access my page loads , however when I submit a form with the same URL as my action value , I get the error below :
404 - File Not Found
Controller or its method is not found: App\Controllers\Control_panel::request_access
Below is my Sign in page :
Code:
<form action="http://localhost/bytepixels/public/control_panel/request_access" method="POST" >
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="bp_post_email" placeholder="Enter username">
<label for="userpassword">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" name="bp_post_password" placeholder="Enter password">
<button class="btn btn-primary w-md waves-effect waves-light" type="submit">Log In</button>
</form>Any help will be appreciated.
P.S : Any suggestions for a CI4 book out there ? , the documentation isn't as helpful as the ones for CI 2 & 3, not a dig at the contributors , just seeking help.

$routes->get() will only work for GET request. To define a route for a POST request you need to define it with $routes->post(). See https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide/incoming/routing.html#using-http-verbs-in-routes

PHP Code:
$routes->get('products', 'Product::feature');
$routes->post('products', 'Product::feature');
$routes->put('products/(:num)', 'Product::feature');
$routes->delete('products/(:num)', 'Product::feature');
Multiple method:
PHP Code:
$routes->match(['get', 'put'], 'products', 'Product::feature');
No method:
PHP Code:
$routes->add('journals', 'App\Blogs');
Your form sends POST request while your route is taking get requests.
