3,907 PointsMethod [beforeFilter] does not exist.
I am using Laravel 5.3 and up to now I have solved all discrepancies between the 2 versions. but I do not know what to do with this one:
public function __construct() {
$this->beforeFilter('csrf', array('on'=> 'post'));
}
I read that beforeFilter has been replaced with middleware and by default csrf is enabled for all routes. Does this mean that I can remove the constructor and it will function successfully??

3,907 PointsI commented out the constructor and I tried to modify the generated csrf token and laravel responded with: TokenMismatchException in VerifyCsrfToken.php. So I think that the beforeFilter is no longer required.
