iPanel - Advanced Retro Management (PHP 7, Laravel)

[LeChris]

Quick Description

iPanel was originally built to handle the many functions required by the staff members of Peace Hotel, however, this project is now going to be developed for all to use. It will feature many things not yet seen in current day administration panels such as permission based functions, multiple database handling and multiple layer authentication.

Permission System

Permissions are required to do any function within the administration panel, while the entire configuration area for it relies around the access token view_dev_config other commonly accessed functions require a token per function. An example is when you go to view the users table - you're required to have the view_users permission and when you go to edit an user account you'll need edit_users/b]

This looks really nice honestly, I like the simplistic design of the panel. Something like this could definitely ease managing a retro, wouldn't mind if this actually got released.

I liked the theme. But is a theme from themeforest?

Also give a better PHP snippet, this snippet is messed up.

Hadn't seen this before... Maybe it wasn't approved yet.

Looks cool! Goodluck!

I believe it was Limitless on Themeforest

Make all the texts come from a database, easy to translate and stuff.

Multiple languages will not be supported, due to the fact it'll add a lot of data for no apparent reason for the most part and would be hard to keep. ie, permissions would need to be translated, page data, and so on while this could be easy to add it'll add too much to feature creation on my end

Multiple databases is supported, and the way it works is by switching the folder the ORM models and views load from, clean and simple

Nice to see that you're using Laravel. Keep it up!
btw. use

-tag instead of [PHP]

I like the template.
Hope you will finish this one.

You should edit your main post to use code tags instead of PHP tags. PHP tags are broken and makes code look sloppy

Updates:

-News management is 100% done
-Cerberus user password resetting is done, suspending is done, and additionally a god mode so user(s) cannot be suspended by other was added.
Extra information
-Password reset will generate a random password (Uses bcrypt for this) for login, was going to use an email system to send it out but doubt users would have a valid smtp available so it just returns it so you'll have to manually give the password to said staff member via some means of communication)
-Upon password reset initial login it'll force you to change your password and log you out for re-authentication
-Suspension is middleware that checks before every request, good luck dodging it

Possible features
A system to "authorize" commits to the live database. Aka, a moderator will "request" to push changes to a news article and or user and will need to be "approved" by a superior staff member. This would be an extremely secure way to handle management, but also slow in some means. So if added, it will be optional to enable or disable as well as with a follow up permission token so an user could skip this check all together

Could you reformat the thread? If you click on the last edited date you can view the history.

Also what about Arcturus support ?

I gave up on the initial thread format, I tried to reformat it and it wouldn't let me lol

That will be added in if I see enough live usage of it, so if you know of any hotels running it link me up so I can confirm

@LeChris the development is great so far, but I'd like to request you to add the information back to the main post, as stated on the rules, otherwise the thread will be deleted.

 

[LeChris]

Updates:
You can now edit user badges, either by purging them or deleting a badge manually


You can also edit user inventory, however only purging and manually deleting will be supported (No adding to inventory)


A user changelog will also be added to preview what staff do to users


Staff forums will be added via the admin panel for easy discussion

Someone is mad over here.

Someone is mad over here.

Not mad at all, just senseless to keep a development open for shits and giggles when I can sell it privately

Ever seen me release most of my Node.js work? Nicht, I released the first test project I had with it and nothing afterwards. Money is power


All jokes aside, official change log for those who follow this project

-Middleware is now being used for permission checking
-Beginning of multiple service management is being added
-Plus Emulator support is 80% complete

Unsure of what CMS everyone will choose to use, and each having their own hashing method. I will of course follow up iPanel with a CMS adjusted to work with it's database, but multiple hashing methods will be supported for user password resets
(BCRYPT, MD5, SHA1)

As for services, my plan is at this moment to store connection information within a databse table, this way you can add or remove as seen fit via Cerberus.
