Why not scrap the user id in the route and pull it out of the Auth?

Hey kpzani, thanks for your response.

I realise I haven't fully elaborated on this option - If using routes, I would compare the ID of the current logged in user (Sentry::getUser()->id) against the user_id of that particular todo list (todo_lists.user_id). If the id of the logged in user does not match the user_id of the todo list, they would be redirected.

So I think I am pulling the user ID as you suggested, but from Sentry instead of Auth.

I hope that makes sense!

You need global scope for this, not the query scopes. That culttt rather not the way to go.

Here you'll find how to implement that scope: http://laravel.io/forum/07-24-2014-automatically-append-query-...

Great advice, thanks! I'll follow up on global scopes :)
