LogicException in Model.php line 2702:
Relationship method must return an object of type Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\Relation

$model = Menu::findOrFail($id);
        $form = $formBuilder->create('App\Forms\MenuForm', [
            'method' => 'PUT',
            'model' => $model,
            'url' => route('admin.menus.update', $id)
        ])->add('Update', 'submit', [
                'attr' => ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-success col-xs-12']
        ]);

but If I remove the last line it works fine i.e.

$model = Menu::findOrFail($id);
        $form = $formBuilder->create('App\Forms\MenuForm', [
            'method' => 'PUT',
            'model' => $model,
            'url' => route('admin.menus.update', $id)
        ])

It is happening with latest updated version, previosuly it was working fine with my same project running version 1.6 but current version is 1.7

Can you just try using different name for submit btn, something like this:

$model = Menu::findOrFail($id);
        $form = $formBuilder->create('App\Forms\MenuForm', [
            'method' => 'PUT',
            'model' => $model,
            'url' => route('admin.menus.update', $id)
        ])->add('Submit', 'submit', [
                'attr' => ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-success col-xs-12'],
                'label' => 'Update'
        ]);

@msonowal please let me know if that worked out for you.

@kristijanhusak first of all thanks. It's working. but I really want to know why it was workin before and now not working I use to add buttons like that, but from now I have to use only Submit if I want to add button right?

@msonowal it is related to this issue #232

Basically none of the eloquent method names are allowed. since Eloquent class has update() method, it crashes with this error. Like it is mentioned in the issue #232, i added the save to reserved words, but i'll do it a bit more dynamic.

thank you for your reply
And one more question is there form helper for generating horizontal forms I am unable to find in the docs like below example

 <form class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
 <label for="inputEmail3" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Email</label>
 <div class="col-sm-10">
   <input type="email" class="form-control" id="inputEmail3" placeholder="Email">
 </div>
</div>
 <div class="form-group">
<label for="inputPassword3" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Password</label>
<div class="col-sm-10">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="inputPassword3" placeholder="Password">
</div>
 </div>

@msonowal there is no templates for that, there's an open issue #175 , but i didn't have time to add that to the package. If you want create it and make a PR.
