laravel eloquent php PHP

I recently switched to I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer... I'm working on a project and hit a roadblock... I am experiencing unexpected behavior when using custom scopes in Laravel 8.x along with eager loading. I have a `Post` model that has a custom scope for retrieving only published posts. Here's the scope I defined: ```php public function scopePublished($query) { return $query->where('status', 'published'); } ``` I'm trying to retrieve all published posts along with their related `comments` using eager loading. My query looks like this: ```php $posts = Post::published()->with('comments')->get(); ``` However, when I call the `get()` method, I get the following behavior: ``` SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'status' in 'where clause' ``` I have verified that the `status` column exists in the `posts` table. I also confirmed that the custom scope is being called properly by dumping the query with `toSql()`, and the generated SQL looks correct. I have checked my database migration for the `posts` table too: ```php Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('title'); $table->string('status'); $table->timestamps(); }); ``` Despite all this, it seems like the `scopePublished` method is leading to an unexpected query modification, or perhaps there’s some caching scenario with Eloquent. I tried clearing the application cache with `php artisan cache:clear`, but it didn’t solve the question. Can anyone provide insights on why the scope might not be recognizing the `status` column, or if there's something I might be overlooking with eager loading in this context? I'm working on a application that needs to handle this. Any ideas what could be causing this? I've been using Php for about a year now. Any examples would be super helpful. This issue appeared after updating to Php latest. Is this even possible?
