Logout : MethodNotAllowedHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 233

Question

I'm using multi auth for Laravel ...

This is my lougout function for users

LoginController

public function logout()
{
    Auth::guard('web')->logout();
    return redirect('/');
}

AdminloginController

public function logout()
{
    Auth::guard('web')->logout();
    return redirect('/');
}

This is my route

Route::get('/enseignant/logout', 'Auth\LoginController@Elogout')->name('enseignant.logout');

Route::get('/administration/logout', 'Auth\AdminloginController@logout')->name('admin.logout');

All the methods in the view

 <a href="{{ route('admin.logout') }}" class="btn btn-default btn-flat"
   onclick="event.preventDefault();
   document.getElementById('logout-form').submit();">
   Logout
 </a>

 <form id="logout-form" action="{{ route('admin.logout') }}" method="POST" style="display: none;">
 {{ csrf_field() }}
 </form>

The function works fine but when I click the button I get this error :

MethodNotAllowedHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 233

Your route accepts only GET method, but in the form, you specified using POST. I think this is the source of the problem. The error message also indicates that.

It's recommended to use POST for logout, as you did. So, just by changing the route in question to...

Route::post(...);

... should fix the error.
