FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package theme-coreuiv2

Theme CoreUI v2

This package provides a Theme for the Backpack for Laravel administration panel, that uses CoreUI v2 and implicitly Bootstrap v4. As a UI (aka UI kit, aka admin panel template) it looks and works as seen on https://backstrap.net/ - as it is a customized version of CoreUI v2.

It has been launched in 2021 as part of Backpack's core. In 2023 it has been sparated into this package, as a way to provide 100% backwards-compatibility, for whoever doesn't want to upgrade to the newer themes, like CoreUI v4 and Tabler.

Why would anybody NOT want to upgrade? Well... because some developers:

have to support IE; and while Bootstrap v5 is better in every way... it does drop support for IE;
have customized their blade files so much, that it's impossible to upgrade;

If you're one of the developers above, fear not... this package offers a way for you to upgrade your project to Backpack v6... while not rocking the boat too much. Please keep in mind we DO NOT plan to add any more features to this theme. It's just here as a crutch for people who can't upgrade.

Alternatively, follow the manual installation process below.

Manual installation

Step 3. (Optional) Publish the theme config file:

Uninstalling

To uninstall this Backpack theme:

Remove the composer package. Eg. composer remove backpack/theme-coreuiv2
Delete the config file. Eg. rm -rf config/backpack/theme-coreuiv2.php
Install a new theme (eg. php artisan backpack:require:theme-coreuiv4) or change the view_namespace in config/backpack/ui.php to the theme you want to be active.

Overriding

If you need to change a blade file in any way, you can easily copy-paste the file to your app, and modify that file any way you want. If you do that to the correct directory, your file will be used instead of the one in the package. But please keep in mind that you will NOT be getting any updates for that file.

The more files you copy-paste and customize, the more difficult it will be to upgrade to newer versions. So please avoid doing this too much.

Customizing

In you'll notice there are variables where you can change exactly what CSS classes are placed on the HTML elements that represent the header, body, sidebar and footer:

Our default design might not be pleasant for your, or you might need to make the UI integrate better into your project. We totally understand. You can use the classes above to make it look considerably different.

You'll find a few examples below - but you should use which classes you want to get the result you need.

Backstrap

Transparent top menu, transparent sidebar, transparent footer. This is the default. This is what we think is best for most users, from our 8+ years of experience building admin panels. Prioritising content over menus.
