Change config/settings.php according to your needs. If you change db_table, don't forget to change the table's name in the migration file as well.

$ php artisan migrate

How to Use it?

Set a value

Settings::set('key', 'value');
or
settingset('key', 'value');

Get a value

$value = Settings::get('key');
or
$value = settings('key');

Get a value with Default Value.

$value = Settings::get('key', 'Default Value');
or
$value = settings('key', 'Default Value');

Note: If key is not found (null) in cache or settings table, it will return default value

Get a value via an helper

$value = settings('key');
$value = settings('key', 'default value');

Forget a value

Settings::forget('key');

Forget all values

Settings::flush();

// Change your config/settings.php
'fallback'   => true

Example

/* 
 * If the value with key => mail.host is not found in cache or DB of Larave Settings
 * it will return same value as config::get('mail.host');
 */     
Settings::get('mail.host');

Note: It will work if default value in laravel setting is not set
