Considerations

Routes

This package adds the routes under ercdev/erc-news. Please verify that these don't collide with your existing routes.

Dependencies

• Your project should be running Laravel 5.1 or higher.

Installation

1. Install via composer:

       composer require ercdev/erc-news:~1.0.0
   

2. Publish configurations and resources:

       php artisan vendor:publish
   

3. Add the service provider entry in config\app.php:

       ERCDEV\ERCNews\ERCNewsServiceProvider::class,
   

4. Include erc-news.blade.php on your custom view:

       @include('vendor.erc-news.erc-news')
   

Configuration

The following elements are configurable:

• route: (default: erc-news) Change to customize in the browser. This is just cosmetic.
• middleware: (default: ['auth']) Change to [] if you doesn`t check user access.
• html_login_hint: (default: <b> First <br/> Second </br>) Change to display news in paragraph formatting on top of block.
• html_login_info: (default: <li>First</li><li>Second</li>) Change to display news in lists formatting on bottom of block.
• password_expiry_field: (default: expiry_time) Change this to column name in your db of users table.
• password_expiry_notice_message: (default: Your password expired on :?. You can change it now ) Change to display notification of expiring password.
• password_expiry_notice_period: (default: 14) Change to display notification notice period.
• password_change_url: (default: /change_password) Change to display url for changing password.

You can now change the default value in /app/config/erc-news.php as desired. Deleting the /app/config/erc-news.php file will revert back to the default settings.
