This is currently backwards compatible without any edits. - For new installations please add the following to `App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider`: ``` Gate::define(GateTypes::MANAGE_BLOG_ADMIN, static function (?Model $user) { // Implement your logic here, for example: return $user && $user->email === 'your-admin-user@your-site.com'; // Or something like `$user->is_admin === true` }); ``` - The old way (using the `canManageBlogEtcPosts()` method on User.php) will still work but it is not recommended. At some point in the future it will be removed. (Readme on webdevetc.com will be updated soon) Blog Package for Laravel ------------------------ [](#blog-package-for-laravel) This is [WebDevEtc's](https://webdevetc.com/) [BlogEtc Blog package for Laravel](https://webdevetc.com/blogetc). It has everything you need to quickly and easily add a blog to your laravel app. ### For installation instructions please read [the Laravel blog install guide here](https://webdevetc.com/laravel/packages/blogetc-blog-system-for-your-laravel-app/help-documentation/laravel-blog-package-blogetc#install_guide) [](#for-installation-instructions-please-read-the-laravel-blog-install-guide-here) [Install guide](https://webdevetc.com/laravel/packages/blogetc-blog-system-for-your-laravel-app/help-documentation/laravel-blog-package-blogetc#install_guide) • [Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/webdevetc/blogetc) << They're simple, but must be followed.

After running the `vendor:publish` command, all of the default template files will be found in `/resources/views/vendor/blogetc/` and are easy to edit to match your needs. Missing /auth/register? ----------------------- [](#missing-authregister) If you are installing on a fresh install of Laravel (which no longer includes auth built in) then the following must be ran: ``` composer require laravel/ui; php artisan ui vue --auth; ``` Issues, support, bug reports, security issues --------------------------------------------- [](#issues-support-bug-reports-security-issues) Please contact me on the contact from on [WebDev Etc](https://webdevetc.com/) or on [twitter](https://twitter.com/web_dev_etc/) and I'll get back to you ASAP. Versions -------- [](#versions) - **8.4** (Sept 2020): Added support for Laravel 8. Removed support for PHP 7.2 - **8.3** (Sept 2020): Removed support for `swisnl/laravel-fulltext` as it seems abandoned. - Searching in blogetc is now much more simple - it is all inline in the controller and does a simple LIKE query. - If you need full text search then I recommend you implement your own search controller (see older commits to copy code that used full text search) - **8.2** (Sept 2020): Added fix for dynamic title - **< 8.1** Support for PHP 7.2, 7.3, 7.4. Support for Lavavel 5.8.35 - 7.6 ### Health Score 44 — FairBetter than 92% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity45 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community22 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity75 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 89% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
