about using the CSRF filter in your forms. Often you will want to apply a filter to many routes. Instead of attaching the filter to each individual route, you can assign it to many routes at the same time as a group:

Sometimes you need to add a new column to a table that already exists, for this we can use laravel migrations. In our command line we type (You can name the migration file as you want ) : php artisan migrate: make add_field_to_table. In line 14 we're adding a new field (table column) into our table. We type the field type if you don't know the field types you can find them in the documentation: http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/schema. Continuing with, we can specified if we want to add the field before or after an a column that already exists of course. In this case i'm using after but you should use whatever you need. Once we have finish, we go back to the command line we type: php artisan migrate. And that's it, we've updated our table. I guess that we can add as many fields as we need, i didn't try that but i think that it will works too. Cheers!
