Laravel can't get user image

I have a problem. I want to get user image link from DB but I'm getting nothing. Just blank space. I don't know why this is happening because other attributes are showing. Heres the code:

forum.integration.php

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Application user model
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| The user model from the main application
|
*/

'user_model' => 'App\User',

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Application user name attribute
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| The attribute on the user model to use as a display name.
|
*/

'user_name_attribute' => 'name',
'user_role_attribute' => 'role',
'user_image_attribute' => 'image',

HasAuthor.php

public function author()
{
    return $this->belongsTo(config('forum.integration.user_model'), 'author_id');
}

public function getAuthorNameAttribute()
{
    $attribute = config('forum.integration.user_name_attribute');

    if (!is_null($this->author) && isset($this->author->$attribute)) {
        return $this->author->$attribute;
    }

    return NULL;
}

public function getAuthorRoleAttribute()
{
    $attribute = config('forum.integration.user_role_attribute');

    return $this->author->$attribute;
}

public function getAuthorImageAttribute()
{
    $attribute = config('forum.integration.user_image_attribute');

    return $this->author->attribute;
}

I'm getting this fine -> $post->authorRole

Also I'm getting this fine -> $post->authorName

But when I do $post->authorImage I get nothing. No errors, just blank space.

I forgot to add $ sign to this line:

public function getAuthorImageAttribute()
{
    $attribute = config('forum.integration.user_image_attribute');

    return $this->author->**$**attribute;
}

Your function is missing a $. It should be like this:

public function getAuthorImageAttribute()
{
    $attribute = config('forum.integration.user_image_attribute');

    return $this->author->$attribute;
}

Note the extra $ before attribute in the last line.
