The simplest way is just to accept the incoming request  and pull out the variables you want in the Controller   Route  get  search     as    gt   search    uses    gt   SearchController search       and then in SearchController search   class SearchController extends BaseController        public function search                  category   Input  get  category    default category             term   Input  get  term   false               do things with them              Usefully  you can set defaults in Input  get   in case nothing is passed to your Controller s action   As joe archer says  it s not necessary to put these terms into the URL  and it might be better as a POST  in which case you should update your call to Form  open   and also your search route in routes php - Input  get   remains the same

Alternatively  if you want to specify expected parameters in action signature  but pass them as arbitrary GET arguments  Use filters  for example   Create a route without parameters    Route  get   history     uses   gt  ExampleController history       Specify action with two parameters and attach the filter   class ExampleController extends BaseController       public function   construct  browser                 this- gt beforeFilter  filterDates   array               only    gt  array  history                          public function history  fromDate   toDate                                     Filter that translates GET into action s arguments    Route  filter  filterDates   function  route  Request  request         notSpecified              fromDate    request- gt get  fromDate    notSpecified        toDate    request- gt get  toDate    notSpecified         route- gt setParameter  fromDate    fromDate        route- gt setParameter  toDate    toDate

So you re trying to get the search term and category into the URL   I would advise against this as you ll have to deal with multi-word search terms etc  and could end up with all manner of unpleasantness with disallowed characters   I would suggest POSTing the data  sanitising it and then returning a results page   Laravel routing is not designed to accept GET requests from forms  it is designed to use URL segments as get parameters  and built around that idea

An alternative to msturdy s solution is using the request helper method available to you   This works in exactly the same way  without the need to import the Input namespace use Illuminate Support Facades Input at the top of your controller   For example   class SearchController extends BaseController        public function search                  category   request  category    default             term   request  term       no default defined
