Laravel 4 SQL error when joining tables - php

Question

I am trying to show 1 record out of highlights, with both Services and Pages joined into this table to show their details (instead of only showing service_id and page_id)
In my HighlightsController I have the following to get the items from my database:
$highlight = Highlight::where('id', $id)->with(array('Service','Page'))->get();
I get this error:
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'services.highlight_id' in 'where clause' (SQL: select * from `services` where `services`.`highlight_id` in (1))
I know that this column doesn't exist because it's looking in the wrong table. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've been over and over my models compairing it with my SQL and thinking where I went wrong
Here are all the details that could be useful:
The SQL I want to get:
SELECT * FROM highlights
LEFT JOIN pages ON pages.id = highlights.page_id
LEFT JOIN services ON services.id = highlights.service_id
WHERE highlights.id = '1'
My tables:
Highlights
+------------+
| Field |
+------------+
| id |
| service_id |
| page_id |
| text |
+------------+
services
+------------+
| Field |
+------------+
| id |
| title |
| description|
+------------+
pages
+------------+
| Field |
+------------+
| id |
| name |
+------------+
Models and their functions:
class Highlight extends Eloquent
{
function Service(){
return $this->HasMany('Service');
}
function Page(){
return $this->HasMany('Page');
}
}
class Service extends Eloquent
{
function Highlight(){
return $this->HasMany('Highlight');
}
}
class Service extends Eloquent
{
function Highlight(){
return $this->belongsTo('Highlight');
}
}

Answer 1

To make it clear - eager loading (with() method) does not join anything, but runs another query per each loaded relation with WHERE id IN clause.
Change those relations as they are completely incorrect:
// Let's call methods snakeCased just for clarity and sticking to the convention
// and singular or plural depending on what is returned
class Highlight extends Eloquent
{
function service(){
return $this->belongsTo('Service'); // returns single Model
}
function page(){
return $this->belongsTo('Page'); // same as above
}
}
class Service extends Eloquent
{
function highlights(){
return $this->HasMany('Highlight'); // returns Collection of Models
// you can have hasOne instead, depending on your app
}
}
class Service extends Eloquent
{
function highlights(){
return $this->hasMany('Highlight'); // again Collection
}
}
Then you call it:
// returns Collection, so let's call it plural:
$highlights = Highlight::where('id', $id)->with(array('service','page'))->get();
