Creating Email Verification in Laravel

Laravel Email Verification - In this article I will explain how to make email verification in Laravel using the mailtrap service. To make email verification with mailtrap is quite easy. And here are the steps to make email verification with mailtrap in laravel:

Don't forget to install the laravel project and install laravel ui for the authentication feature. And also don't forget to create a new database, adjust DB_DATABASE in .env and run php artisan migrate.

  2. In Step three, add route Auth::routes(['verify' => true]); in routes/web.php. So that the display in the web.php file will be like below add route Auth::routes(['verify' => true]);
  3. And the last step is adding 'verify' middleware in HomeController. So the display in the HomeController will be like the image below. adding 'verify' middleware in HomeController By adding the verify middleware, it means that the controller or home page that is called on this controller can only be accessed by users whose emails have been verified.
