Menus

Each menu has nestable entries. One entry can be linked to a page or URL. You can return a HTML formated menu with Menus::render('menuname') or @menu('menuname').

User registration can be enabled through the settings panel (/admin/settings). Roles and Permissions are managed with spatie/laravel-permission.

Blocks

Blocks are useful to display custom content in your views. You can display the content of a block with Blocks::render('blockname') or @block('blockname').

Translations

Translations can be stored in the database through the admin panel (/admin/translations).

You can call DB translation everywhere with Lang::get('db.Key'), trans('db.Key') or @lang('db.Key').

A sitemap is generated by reading all pages available in your project. The URL is /sitemap.xml.

Publish a module

If you want to modify a module, for example to add some fields or a relation, you have to publish it by running:
