Control Panel

Content List View

The Content section lists all your content items with filtering and search capabilities:

• Filter by status (draft, published, archived)
• Sort by various attributes (title, date, author)
• Search content by keyword
• Bulk operations for multiple items

Content Editor

The content editor includes:

• WYSIWYG Editor: Rich text editing with formatting tools
• Media Integration: Insert and manage media within content
• Custom Fields: Input fields based on your defined content types
• SEO Settings: Meta title, description, and other optimization options
• Versioning: Manage content revisions and history
• Publishing Controls: Schedule content publication and set status

Branding

You can customize the appearance of the control panel through the configuration file:

// config/inspirecms.php
'admin' => [
    'brand' => [
        'name' => 'Your Site Name',
        'logo' => 'path/to/your-logo.svg',
        'favicon' => 'path/to/favicon.ico', // Optional
    ],
],

The control panel automatically adapts to these branding settings, giving your admin area a custom look that matches your site's identity.

Adding Custom Resources

You can extend the control panel with your own resources:

// config/inspirecms.php
'filament' => [
    // Existing resources...
    'resources' => [
        'content' => FilamentResources\ContentResource::class,
        // Add your custom resource
        'products' => App\Filament\Resources\ProductResource::class,
    ],
],

Adding Custom Pages

You can add custom pages to the control panel:

// config/inspirecms.php
'filament' => [
    // Existing pages...
    'pages' => [
        'dashboard' => FilamentPages\Dashboard::class,
        // Add your custom page
        'analytics' => App\Filament\Pages\Analytics::class,
    ],
],

Control Panel Appearance

You can fully customize the control panel's theme by overriding the default CmsPanelProvider. This allows you to change colors, fonts, and other visual elements to match your brand.

Creating a Custom Panel Provider

First, create a custom provider class that extends the base CmsPanelProvider:

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use SolutionForest\InspireCms\CmsPanelProvider;
use Filament\Panel;

class CustomCmsPanelProvider extends CmsPanelProvider
{
    protected function configureCmsPanel(Panel $panel)
    {
        return parent::configureCmsPanel($panel)
            ->colors([
                'primary' => '#6366f1',
                'secondary' => '#8b5cf6',
                'success' => '#10b981',
                'info' => '#06b6d4',
                'warning' => '#fbbf24',
                'danger' => '#f43f5e',
                'gray' => '#71717a',
            ])
            ->font('Poppins');
    }
}

Registering Your Custom Provider

Next, register your custom provider in bootstrap/providers.php:

<?php

return [
    App\Providers\CustomCmsPanelProvider::class,
    // Other providers...
];

For more advanced theme customization options, refer to the Filament Panels documentation.

Adding Custom Widgets

You can add custom widgets by extending your custom panel provider:

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use SolutionForest\InspireCms\CmsPanelProvider;
use Filament\Panel;
use App\Filament\Widgets\AnalyticsWidget;
use SolutionForest\InspireCms\Filament\Widgets;

class CustomCmsPanelProvider extends CmsPanelProvider
{
    protected function configureCmsPanel(Panel $panel)
    {
        return parent::configureCmsPanel($panel)
            ->widgets([
                // Default widgets
                Widgets\CmsInfoWidget::class,
                Widgets\PageActivity::class,
                // Your custom widget
                AnalyticsWidget::class,
            ]);
    }
}

Remember to register your custom provider in bootstrap/providers.php as shown in the Customizing the Control Panel section.
