Unreleased

Added

  • Installed bezhansalleh/filament-language-switch plugin for a native Filament admin topbar language switcher
  • Configured LanguageSwitch in AppServiceProvider with locales en, hi, ar, native labels, and circular avatars
  • Created custom Filament theme at resources/css/filament/admin/theme.css via php artisan make:filament-theme
  • Added @source directive for the language switch plugin to the Filament theme CSS so plugin classes are compiled
  • Published and ran spatie/laravel-medialibrary migration to create the media table (was missing from initial setup)

Changed

  • Replaced manual panels::topbar.end render hook (which injected the public frontend LocaleSwitcher Livewire component, looking unstyled) with the official language switch plugin — auto-places a native icon button in the Filament topbar

  • Rebuilt Vite assets (npm run build) to include the language switch plugin CSS in the compiled theme

  • Wrapped $blog->getFirstMediaUrl() call in blog-detail.blade.php with Laravel's rescue() helper to fall back to the default OG image instead of crashing when the media table is unavailable
