'cms\_user' => \[ 'driver' => 'session', 'provider' => 'cms\_users' \]

and to the providers array the following:

'cms\_users' => \[ 'driver' => 'eloquent', 'model' => Xtnd\\Cms\\CmsUser::class \]

Step 4

And add to the class the following function to redirect unauthenticated routes to the login page:

```
use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;

protected function unauthenticated($request, AuthenticationException $exception){

    if ($request->expectsJson()) {
        return response()->json(['message' => $exception->getMessage()], 401);
    }

    $guard = array_get($exception->guards(),0);
    switch ($guard) {
        case 'cms_user':
            $login = 'cmslogin';
            break;

        default:
            $login = 'login';
            break;
    }

    return redirect()->guest(route($login));
}

```

Step 6
======

[](#step-6)

To create your first CMS user, go to the following route:

/cms/register

And voila! You're all set.

IMPORTANT:
==========

[](#important)

every time you add a table or column, you need to run these 2 routes while being logged in, to configure the cms:

/cms/configure

/cms/configureTables

This step wil be made easier in future releases
