Installation
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EXTENSION IS INSTALLED IN A DIFFERENT MANNER THAN USUAL EXTENSIONS. IF YOU ARE NOT WELL EXPERIENCED WITH YOUR SITE AND USING YOUR IDE, PLEASE CONSIDER ASKING FOR HELP INSTALLING.
I highly recommend installing locally before pushing to production
Pull the branch Comment-Addons from https://github.com/Ne-wt/lorekeeper.git
Once pulled, run the command composer install on your local folder. This will install the config files for comments.
If you forget this step, your comments will not work and you will receive 500 errors on all models containing comment code.
Please note that currently, this composer package is not a standalone host and relies on GitHub API. This means you may be denied installing from the repository for a period of time. I unfortunately cannot predict how long. I am working on seeing if I can host it as a live package.
Configuration
Comments come with the following extensions installed:
- User Avatars
- Sales Page Addon
- User Ranks Icon Addon
If you do not wish to use these please consider removing before pushing to your site.
If you make any local changes to your vendor folder, you *can ftp your comments folder directly to your server, as git does not track the vendor folder.*
Usage
To add comments to a new page, add the following:
- Add
use Laravelista\Comments\Commentable;to the top of your model - Add
use Commentable;within the curly brackets (e.g Controller extends Controller{ use Commentable;) - Add
@comments([ 'model' => $modelvariable,'approved' => true ])to your view
Troubleshooting
If you need support please @ me in the lorekeeper discord, Newt#7776. Please note I heavily advise testing on local before pushing to production.
