title: After rewriting some of my routes using put, patch and delete my functionality doesn't work anymore and the page just refreshes. Not getting errors
body: <p>After finding out I've been writing my routes slightly wrong I decided to fix them. The routes originally looked like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Route::get('/deleteImage/{id}', 'ArtworkController@deleteImage')-&gt;name('deleteImage');
  Route::get('/deleteCategory/{id}', 'CategoryController@deleteCategory')-&gt;name('deleteCategory');
  Route::patch('/profile/{id}/update', 'UsersController@updateProfile')-&gt;name('updateProfile');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I changed them to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Route::delete('/image/{id}', 'ArtworkController@deleteImage')-&gt;name('deleteImage');
  Route::delete('/category/{id}', 'CategoryController@deleteCategory')-&gt;name('deleteCategory');
  Route::patch('/profile/{id}', 'UsersController@updateProfile')-&gt;name('updateProfile');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sadly, as soon as I changed <code>Route::get('/deleteImage/{id}'</code> to <code>Route::delete('/image/{id}'</code> something went wrong.</p>
  
  <p>This is the <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag that leads to the deleteImage route:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a class='placeholderDelete' href='{{ route('deleteImage', ['image_id' =&gt; $image-&gt;id]) }}'&gt;Delete Image&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Before making the changes the image would get deleted after clicking that anchor element, however, after the changes the page just refreshes and nothing happens. The image doesn't get deleted from my database and storage.</p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure how to troubleshoot as I'm not getting any errors or anything like that.</p>
