I want to implement theme options module in my website which is obviously powered by Laravel. I'm wondering where to store options like: Social icons address, Google map code for contact page, Copyright text.. Like we have in WordPress. What is the best practice ?
If you need to cover you mentioned parts, just simply create pages in your admin page. Store all data in database, and display in your page.
For example- Social Icon. In your admin, create a page where you show drop down / input field for social icons.
Means if i have 30 options then i'll need 30 columns in database table most probably options table ?
Depends on, how do you want to design.
May be can follow this idea-
socialicons: {
"facebook" : "fa facebook-icon",
"twitter" : "fa twitter-icon",
"linkedin" : "fa linkedin-icon",
}
In your tables, just insert into one column. Such a way, you can add as much as you want.
Ahan this looks good to me.
I believe, wordpress is also doing that.
