Admin Panel Settings

A lot of settings can be located in the phpVMS Admin panel, under settings.


Configuration Files

Laravel has a lot of basic configuration in PHP files in the /config directory. In order to not overwrite these on an update, there is a way to override these in a .env file in the root of your phpVMS install that is generated by the installer. This contains information such as the database, mail, and select configs from the /config directory. This file is used as an override (in the previous version of phpVMS, the local.config.php file is the same concept).

caution

Don't change the files in the /config directory; instead, edit the .env file. This file will not be overwritten on an update.

See Laravel configuration files for additional documentation.


Language

You can change the system language to one of the available translations. Check phpvms/resources/lang/ to see which locale codes are available.

For example, to use Brazilian Portuguese, confirm that phpvms/resources/lang/pt-br exists, then add the locale to your .env:

APP_LOCALE=pt-br
