Laravel 5.4 Redirect back to intended url

Question

Im trying to setup the ability to redirect the user to the original intended url.

If a user visits a url and is required to login, it should redirect them to the original url they visited. Ive been doing some reading on Stackoverflow and have come to these solutions, however I cant get it to function as intended (no intended pun :) )

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

I am on Laravel 5.4.36

My LoginController.php

          if (Auth::attempt($credentials, $remember_me, $user->status == 'Confirmed')) {

              if ($control_panel->auth_throttle == "on") {
                  $this->clearLoginAttempts($request);
              }

              // Added if statement if user is super admin we'll direct to their
              // dashboard
              if ($user->superadmin == true) {

                return redirect()->intended("/admin");

              }
              // if user is not superadmin we'll direct them to their
              // dashboard
              else {
                  return redirect()->intended("v1");    
              }         
          }

My RedirectIfAuthenticated.php

public function handle($request, Closure $next, $guard = null)
{
    if (Auth::guard($guard)->check()) {

        return redirect()->intended();

        //return redirect('/admin');
    }

    return $next($request);
}

From my understanding of reading your question, you want to redirect a user BACK to the previous route after authentication?

Laravel has a back helper.
