Projects have categories, projects URLs follows this pattern: /en/projects/category-slug/project-slug

Categories

Categories have many projects.

Tags

Tags are linked to projects and use the Selectize jQuery plugin. The tags moudle has many to many polymorphic relations so it could easily be linked to other modules.

Files

The files module allows you to upload multiple files. It uses DropzoneJS to upload them. Thumbnails are generated on the fly with Croppa.

Galleries

You can create as many galleries as you want, each gallery has many files. Galleries are linkable to any module item through a polymorphic many to many relation, for now only the news module is properly set up to support galleries.

Users and groups

Sentry 2 is used to manage users, groups and permissions. User registration can be enabled through the settings panel (/admin/settings).

Blocks

Blocks are useful to display custom content in your views. You can get the content of a block with Blocks::build('blockname').

Translations

Translations can be stored in the database through the admin panel (/admin/translations).

You can call DB translation everywhere with Lang::get('db.Key'), trans('db.Key') or @lang('db.Key').
