How can I get a value from the URL of a view and use it in controller?

I have 2 Blade views. In the first one I send out an id of a product and redirect to another view where I need to input other stuff. In the controller I can't get the id from the first view in order to use it to store all the information from both views in my database.

I need to get the shoe_id/$product->id value!

Here is the first view:

<form action="{{ route('search') }}" method="GET">
    <input type="text" name="search" required/>
    <button class ="btn" type="submit">Search</button>
</form>
</h3>
@if($products->isNotEmpty())
    @foreach ($products as $product)
        <div class="col-md-2">
            <form action="sell/{{$product->id}}" method="POST">
                @csrf
                {{-- <a href="{{'products/sell/' . $product->id }}"> --}}
            <button name="shoe_id" value="{{ $product->id }}" class="btn">
                <img src="/imagini/{{ $product->id }}.1.jpg" style="height: 210px">
            </button>
                {{-- </a> --}}
            </form>
            <p style="text-align: center">{{ $product->title }}</p>
        </div>
    @endforeach

Here is the second view:

<form action="/select/{product_id}" method="post">
    @csrf

    <h2>Select a size:</h2>
    <div class="row" style="margin-bottom: 50px">
        <select class="select2" name="size" style="width: 300px">
            <option>35</option>
            <option>35.5</option>
            <option>36</option>
            <option>36.5</option>
            <option>37</option>
            <option>37.5</option>
            <option>38</option>
            <option>38.5</option>
            <option>39</option>
            <option>39.5</option>
            <option>40</option>
            <option>40.5</option>
            <option>41</option>
            <option>41.5</option>
            <option>42</option>
            <option>42.5</option>
            <option>43</option>
            <option>43.5</option>
            <option>44</option>
            <option>44.5</option>
            <option>45</option>
            <option>45.5</option>
            <option>46</option>
            <option>46.5</option>
            <option>47</option>
            <option>47.5</option>
            <option>48</option>
            <option>48.5</option>
        </select>
    </div>

    <div class="row" style="margin-bottom: 50px">
        <h2>Insert the price:</h2>
        <input type="text" style="width: 300px" placeholder="$" name="price" required>
    </div>

    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-lg px-3" value="Sell!">
</form>

Here is the controller:

public function store($shoe_id){
    request()->validate(['price'=> 'required|max:255']);

    // $url = request('id');

    dd($shoe_id);

    ListedProducts::create([
        'user_id'=> auth()->id(),
        // 'shoe_id'=> ,
        'size'=>request('size'),
        'price'=>request('price')
    ]);

    return redirect('/home');
}

And the web.php file:

Route::post('sell/{product_id}', [\App\Http\Controllers\ProductsController::class, 'sell'])->name('sell');
Route::get('sell/{product_id}', [\App\Http\Controllers\ProductsController::class, 'store']);
Route::post('select',[App\Http\Controllers\ProductsController::class, 'store']);

Here is another way you could accomplish the same thing:

return redirect("home?shoe_id={shoe_id}");

then in the index method you could do the same thing as @Ezra suggested:

 public function index(Request $request) {
    $shoe_id = $request->input('shoe_id');
    
    ...

}

The simple way is just to use query params for HTTP GET.

When redirecting to /home add the query param shoe_id

return redirect()->route('home', ['shoe_id' => $shoe_id]);

Then in your home controller function, get the shoe_id query param with

public function index(Request $request) {
    $shoe_id = $request->input('shoe_id');
    
    ...

}

Edit: please read this reference.
