How to add a link to the sidebar:

Instructions for CoreUI Free Vue Laravel admin template only. Pro version have separate instruction.

To add a link to the sidebar - modify seeds file:

my-project/database/seeds/MenusTableSeeder.php

In run() function - add insertLink():

$id = $this->insertLink( $rolesString, $visibleName, $href, $iconString);

• $rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
• $visibleName - a string caption visible in sidebar
• $href - a href, ex. /homepage or http://example.com
• $iconString - a string containing valid CoreUI Icon name (kebab-case), ex. cil-speedometer or cil-pencil

To add a title to the sidebar - use function insertTitle():

$id = $this->insertTitle( $rolesString, $title );

• $rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
• $title - a string caption visible in sidebar

To add a dropdown menu to the sidebar - use function beginDropdown():

$id = $this->beginDropdown( $rolesString, $visibleName, $href, $iconString);

• $rolesString - a string with list of user roles this menu element will be available, ex. "guest,user,admin"
• $visibleName - a string caption visible in sidebar
• $href - a href, ex. /homepage or http://example.com
• $iconString - a string containing valid CoreUI icon name (kebab-case). For example: cil-speedometer or cil-pencil

To end dropdown section - use function endDropdown().

To add link to dropdown call function insertLink() between function calls beginDropdown() and endDropdown(). Example:

$id = $this->beginDropdown('guest,user,admin', 'Some dropdown', 'http://example.com', 'cil-puzzle');
$id = $this->insertLink('guest,user,admin', 'Dropdown name', 'http://example.com');
$this->endDropdown();

IMPORTANT - At the end of run() function, call joinAllByTransaction() function:

$this->joinAllByTransaction();

Once done with seeds file edit, run:

$ php artisan migrate:refresh --seed
# This command also rollbacks database and migrates it again.

BREAD system

BREAD stands for: browse, read, edit, add, delete. Our BREAD system allows you to easily and quickly generate for any table, from the database, a simple BREAD. To create a new BREAD just enter a table name from the database. Then enter a name for the form. Enter the number of rows in the browse table. Choose if you want the browse table to contain buttons: "show", "edit", "add", "delete". Assign roles for users who will be able to use the ready BREAD. Then complete each column of the table separately:

• the column name visible to the user,
• the input type for the column, The last step is to select the appropriate checkboxes:
• browse (allows to display the column in the data table),
• read (allows you to display the column in the show view,)
• edit (enables column editing)
• add (allows you to complete the column data when adding a record. Required if the column is not nullable). It is also possible to handle relationships with another table. If the column is a foreign key, it should be specified: in the field "Optional relation table name" - table name to which the foreign key refers, in the "Optional column name in relation table - to print" field - the name of the column that is in the relation table to be displayed. Finally, select one of the two "field types" that relate to the relation: 'relation select' or 'relation radio'.

E-mail Templates

It is an example of managing e-mail templates. Allows you to create, edit and delete templates. It also allows you to send an E-mail to a selected address.
