How to add custom field in default registration form of Laravel 5.6?

Question

In one of my Laravel 5.6 applications, I need to add a few more fields in the default registration form.

So I've added only one field to test [phone_no] in the default registration form registration.blade.php, and also add phone_no RegisterController, but when I click on the register button it shows the following errors:

"SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1364 Field 'phone_no' doesn't have a default value (SQL: insert into `users` (`name`, `email`, `password`, `updated_at`, `created_at`) values (Jahid Hossain, [email protected], $2y$10$wYg6jAihCz.v09PUXngF/ekjNvZgxb4Rq4GI3i.glfzXt37oGnbSO, 2018-04-20 06:24:27, 2018-04-20 06:24:27))

So here is the migration file code:

public function up()
{
    Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->increments('id');
        $table->string('name');
        $table->string('email')->unique();
        $table->string('password');
        $table->string('status')->default('active');
        $table->string('created_by')->default('SYSTEM');
        $table->string('modified_by');
        $table->string('phone_no');
        $table->rememberToken();
        $table->timestamps();
    });
}

And here is the code of RegisterController:

protected function create(array $data)
{
    return User::create([
        'name' => $data['name'],
        'email' => $data['email'],
        'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
        'created_by' => $data['email'],
        'phone_no'  => $data['phone_no'],
    ]);
}

So I think I am missing something. Can anyone tell me how can I add one/more fields in the Laravel 5.6 default registration form and save those field successfully...

Please add your custom field in below way.

In your model add the your custom field in protected $fillable=['name', 'email', 'password', 'created_by', 'phone_no'] in your model
