Now that we have our mentioned functionality complete, and we're actually hooking these up in the database, now what we can do is build out a mentioned filter
00:06
so we can filter our list of discussions by things we have been mentioned in, any posts that we've been mentioned in. So again, we're just going to follow the same thing,
00:16
and we're going to go ahead and create out another query filter. So let's grab any of these in here, and we will create out a mentioned query filter. And let's pop that in there and start to change this around.
00:31
So mentioned query filter. And for now, let's just do nothing in here. And why don't we go and hook this up to our forum index controller.
00:40
So this will be in our list of authenticated filters, mentioned, and mentioned query filter. Okay, great. So we'll hook this up to our navigation as well
00:51
while we're here. So just down here, let's say mentioned. Mentioned, and mentioned. Great.
01:02
So at the moment, when we select this, nothing happens because we're not actually building the query up, but now we can do this in here. So we're going to go ahead and say query.
01:12
And remember, we're working in the context of a discussion. So we're going to say where has posts. What that will allow us to do is drill further down into the posts relationship here,
01:24
and then create a condition on this. So now we can drill down into the mentions part of this functionality. So we get a new build, well, the same builder into here,
01:34
and then we can say query where has mentions, and then we can drill down into this as well. So now what we can do is say query where user ID equals the authenticated user's ID.
01:57
So basically in a discussion, look within posts, look within the mentions within them posts, and only return mentions that have that user in them. Let's go ahead and try this out.
02:09
So we'll go back to all discussions. We've got quite a few here. So let's click mentioned, and there we go. We know that we've been mentioned in this
02:17
because we just created it. We have technically been mentioned in others, but we didn't actually have this functionality to hook this up at that point.

Overview

Ready to build a forum with Inertia and Laravel?

Why a forum? A forum touches a whole load of concepts that you'll use throughout your development career – particularly on the client-side, where we'll be doing most of the heavy lifting.

So, let's build a clean, modern forum with features like markdown support, code highlighting, advanced filtering, user mentions, full-text search, the ability to mark best answers, and more.
