Method Illuminate\Support\Collection::orWhere does not exist - php

Question

I am trying to connect 2 tables and search in them and show results from them in table on view.
I've got this erro on this line: $query->orWhere($field, 'like', '%'.$search.'%');
in this search metod of my controller:
public function search3(Request $request)
{
$query = DB::table('users')
->join('proforms', 'users.id', '=', 'proforms.user_id')
->get();
$search = $request->get('search');
$requestData = ['showname'];
/* $query = Proform::query(); */
foreach ($requestData as $field){
$query->orWhere($field, 'like', '%'.$search.'%');
}
$data2=$query->paginate(5);
return view('proforms.index', ['proforms' => $data2])->with('i', ($request->input('page', 1) - 1) * 5);
}
This error comes after clicking search button on this view:
#extends('layouts.app')
#section('content')
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12 margin-tb">
<div class="pull-left">

This is my routes for it:
Auth::routes();
Route::get('/home', 'HomeController#index')->name('home');
Route::group(['middleware' => ['auth']], function () {
Route::resource('roles', 'RoleController');
Route::resource('users', 'UserController');
Route::resource('permissions', 'PermissionController');
Route::resource('products', 'ProductController');
Route::resource('invoices', 'InvoiceController');

Route::get('/search', 'UserController#search');
Route::get('/search2', 'ProductController#search2');
Route::get('/search3', 'ProformController#search3');

change
$query = DB::table('users')
->join('proforms', 'users.id', '=', 'proforms.user_id')
->get();
to
$query = DB::table('users')
->join('proforms', 'users.id', '=', 'proforms.user_id');
When you call get() method on a query the query will be executed and will return a Collection instance instead of a builder instance. Error is because Collection class does not have the orWhere method. The Builder has that method. So call the get() method when the query is finished.
