To move the navigation from the top bar to the sidebar in Filament, you need to configure the layout settings properly in your AdminPanelProvider.php file. Filament provides a way to customize the layout through the layout method.
Here's a step-by-step solution to achieve this:
- Open your
AdminPanelProvider.phpfile. - Locate the
layoutmethod or add it if it doesn't exist. - Configure the layout to use the sidebar for navigation.
Here's an example of how you can configure it:
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Filament\Filament;
use Filament\Navigation\NavigationGroup;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class AdminPanelProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
public function boot()
{
Filament::serving(function () {
Filament::layout(function ($layout) {
$layout->sidebar(true); // Enable the sidebar
$layout->topbar(false); // Disable the topbar
});
});
}
}
In this example, the layout method is used to enable the sidebar and disable the topbar. This should move your navigation to the sidebar on the desktop version.
If you have any custom navigation groups or items, make sure they are properly defined and will appear in the sidebar. You can define them in the same AdminPanelProvider.php file or in a separate configuration file.
If you still face issues, ensure that your Filament version is up-to-date and that there are no conflicting configurations elsewhere in your project.
I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
