Admin Forms

The Varbox platform offers an easy solution for building form elements inside the admin panel.

For building admin form elements, the form builder from laravelcollective/html is used as the foundation, so make sure you read their documentation first.

Build Admin Forms

To build admin form elements, you can use the form_admin() helper function which simply acts as a wrapper over the Collective\Html\FormBuilder class.

For all of the available form elements you can create, please take a look inside the Varbox\Helpers\AdminFormHelper class.

Build Multi Language Admin Forms

To build multi language admin form elements, you can use the form_admin_lang() helper function which simply acts as a wrapper over the Collective\Html\FormBuilder class.

This helper takes care of injecting your locale, thus offering you the possibility of creating or updating an element in a specific language.

To see how the locale is automatically leveraged into your forms, please take a look inside the Varbox\Helpers\AdminFormLangHelper class.
