Answer 1

just put \\ to create new folder and use date now()->format('F').now()->format('Y') function

 $dateFromat = now()->format('F').now()->format('Y');
 $image->storeAs("public\annonces\ ".$dateFromat.'\annonces'.".".$image->extension());
 $Annonce->image = "annonces\ ".$dateFromat."\annonces" .".".$image->extension(); 

like above

Answer 2

You can use Carbon's englishMonth function to get the month name.

$image->storeAs("public\annonces\ ".$jdate->englishMonth() . $jdate->year,'annonces'.".".$image->extension());
$Annonce->image = "annonces\ ".$jdate->englishMonth().$jdate->year."annonces" .".".$image->extension();

Answer 3

A much better refactoring could be done in a cleaner way and achieve the goal you want in this way.

/**
 * Store a newly created resource in storage.
 *
 * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function store(Request $request)
{
    $Annonce = new Annonce($request->all());

    if ($request->hasFile('image')) {
        $path = $request->file('avatar')->storeAs(
            "annonces" . \Carbon\Carbon::now()->format('F\Y'), 'annonces'
        );
        $Annonce->image = $path;
    }
    
    $Annonce->save();

    return Redirect::to('annonces')
        ->withSuccess('Great! file has been successfully uploaded.');
}
