I have the following 2 routes:

Route::get('/{category}/{slug?}',  [CategoryController::class, 'index'])->name('category.index')->where('slug', 'trending|subtitled|feature');

This route

Route::get('/cookies-policy',  [PageController::class, 'cookiesPolicy'])->name('cookiesPolicy');

When i try to access the second route, the first route controller is accessed instead.

How do i add a condition to the first route, that if the first segment isn't trending,subtitled or feature then ignore? I thought i accomplished this with: ->where('slug', 'trending|subtitled|feature')

You would need to adjust your where to be assigning the pattern to the category route parameter not the slug parameter:

->where('category', ...);
