Laravel 5 – Remove Public from URL

Question

I know this is a very popular question but I haven\'t been able to find a working solution for Laravel 5. I\'ve been trying to migrate from Codeigniter for a long time, but

Answer 1

I would like to add to @Humble Learner and note that the proper location to "fix" the url path for assets is /Illuminate/Routing/UrlGenerator.php/asset().

Update the method to match:

public function asset($path, $secure = null)
{
    if ($this->isValidUrl($path)) return $path;
    $root = $this->getRootUrl($this->getScheme($secure));
    return $this->removeIndex($root).'/public/'.trim($path, '/');
}

This will fix scripts, styles and image paths. Anything for asset paths.
