But above code throw an error Trying to get property of non-object.
How can you fix these errors, so that the image runs again without an error

Answer 1

In my case! every time this error happens in my code this is because $item->image is not present in my collection instance.

Answer 2

The error is thrown because your $profile variable is not an object, it can be an array or null. Try dd($profile) to make sure that you are passing an object
if you are passing an object then try changing your code like this if you are passing an object
<img class="card-img-top" src="{{ asset('images/' . $profile ? $profile->image : "" )}}"/>
or like below if you are passing an array
<img class="card-img-top" src="{{ asset('images/' . isset($profile['image'] ? $profile['image'] : "" )}}"/>

Answer 3

Do a Auth check before use the auth.
Use firstOrFail instead of first, it will throw a 404 error if get null value :
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
public function index()
{
if (Auth::check())
{
$profile = Profile::where('user_id', Auth::id())->firstOrFail();
return view('profile', compact('profile'));
} else {
return "You are not logged in";
}
}
