[KaminoU]

)

That's good of you.

@vhessam

works like a charm, thx =)

@WebDevEtc @vhessam

I believe that there are 2 missing important conditions in BlogEtcReaderController@index :

$posts = $posts->where('is_published', '=', 1)->where('posted_at', '<', Carbon::now()->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'))->orderBy("posted_at", "desc")->paginate(config("blogetc.per_page", 10));

Without the is_published condition, and the posted_at condition, the draft and delayed post are listed and that is not what we do really want...

Thx for reading

Cheers

@KaminoU
I checked it. You are right, it shows the posts which specified to be not published.
I also consider it in search..
I'm gonna add what you said..
thanks for your help

@KaminoU
I updated the package and added your snippet thank you so much.
Also I made a change on search package and made pull request.
swisnl/laravel-fulltext#23
After my request is approved I'll update the package for its dependencies. That change will solve search page issue.
tnx ;)

Hey,
Thanks for doing this. I meant to release a new version months ago, but then work & life got in the way!

I've just updated this package (webdevetc/blogetc) to work with latest Laravel version.

(I dropped you an email to say thanks too )

@WebDevEtc

thanks for this too much helpful package. Light weight and very great.

[samberrry]

For legecy support it would better to refer to my repository, because I support it and fix any problems when one is reported, as you do not have too much time to see pull requests.
I work on the package and add some features too..

[samberrry]

@WebDevEtc
I support the legacy and there is no problem, I have time to do that. You would update readme file to refer to my repo: https://github.com/vhessam/laravel-blogger or add me as a contributor for legacy support. The community will grow more if we contribute together.

Again many thanks for this useful package.

[samberrry]

I'm open to accept any suggestion.
Many thanks ;)

Hi
feel free to do PRs on this package.
I don't see any reason to split it up onto a different package, it makes upgrading for anyone a big pain - they would then have to remove webdevetc/blogetc, and then add vhessam/laravel-blogger.
I do see the hole that I've dug myself be starting to do a big refactor. I might just slowly upgrade the current (legacy) one with the new changes bit by bit, will be easier than having a huge migration guide to a new version.

[samberrry]

yes you are right, but if you check issues.. I started the new package 1 month after my first issue.
So talking about PRs needs short time for example.. maximum 2 days..or 3 days.. when I started to change the code, community helped me to improve it really... that's why I did not work only on my local system, and I shared that through a new repository.
We all help each other to improve codes. As you see I can update code for a bug fix for a report in hours and respond to reports... and I'll work on legacy and wanna add features.. that could results the WebEtc package be out dated.
You can just focus on new version. Anyway it's up to you.

Many thanks for your valuable work.
