Laravel 4 Trying to get property of non-object error - php

Question

I was working on my website and I logged out to test it and it gave me this error:
Trying to get property of non-object (View: C:\xampp\htdocs\mom\a\app\views\home.blade.php)
Here is my home.blade.php:
#extends('layout.main')
#section('title') Home #stop
#section('content')
<!-- User signed in -->
#if(Auth::check())
<!-- User is not admin -->
<p>Welcome back, {{ Auth::user()->username }}.</p>
#else
<!-- Nothing -->
#endif
#if($posts->count())
#foreach($posts as $post)
<article class="col-md-8 col-md-push-2 well well-white home-posts">
<h2 class="title">{{ $post->title }}</h2>
<hr class="post-break">
<h4 class="home-content">{{ Markdown::parse(Str::limit($post->body, 300)) }}</h4>
<div class="post-footer">
<ul class="footer-group">
<ul>
<li>Published {{ $post->created_at->diffForHumans() }}</li>
<li> Read more →</li>
</ul>
#if(Auth::user()->group ==1)
<ul class="footer-right">
<li class="red"><i class="fa fa-trash"></i> Delete</li>
<li><i class="fa fa-gear"></i> Edit</li>
</ul>
#else
<!-- Nothing -->
#endif
</ul>
</div>
</article>
#endforeach
#endif
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-push-2 ">{{ $posts->appends(array())->links() }}</div>
#stop
If someone could help me find out what property is of the non object is being called and help me fix it. That would be great. Much appreciated.

Answer 1

You should put this line
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-push-2 ">{{ $posts->appends(array())->links() }}</div>
in your if statement
EDIT:
Try to change line:
#if(Auth::user()->group ==1)
to
#if(Auth::check() && Auth::user()->group ==1)
