What This Plugin Adds

Section titled “What This Plugin Adds”

Content Sections is an Available, Schema-owning Capell package in the Capell Foundation product group. It ships as capell-app/content-sections and extends these surfaces: admin, frontend.

Content Sections adds reusable, publishable section records backed by registered blueprints and package-owned rendering components.

Editors create and publish shared sections in the admin and select them from other content surfaces; public pages receive the rendered section without admin metadata.

Evidence: capell.json, src/Models/Section.php, src/Actions/RegisterDefaultSectionsAction.php, src/Providers/ContentSectionsServiceProvider.php, docs/overview.admin.md, docs/screenshots.json, tests/Feature/Filament/Resources/Section/SectionResourceTest.php, tests/Feature/SectionPublicOutputSanitisationTest.php.

Status details:

  • Status: Available
  • Tier: free
  • Bundle: foundation
  • Composer package: capell-app/content-sections
  • Namespace: Capell\ContentSections
  • Theme key: not applicable

Why It Matters

Section titled “Why It Matters”

For developers: Section definitions are registered through a provider contract and resolved by Actions, so new section types can be added without placing queries or presentation logic in public views.

For teams: Teams can maintain repeated content in one section and reuse it across pages while preserving a controlled publishing workflow.

Evidence: src/Contracts/SectionDefinitionProvider.php, src/Support/SectionRegistry.php, src/Actions/ResolveSectionComponentAction.php, tests/Feature/SectionRenderingTest.php, docs/admin-guide.md, src/Actions/FinalizeSectionPublishAction.php, tests/Feature/Publishing/SectionWorkspacePublishTest.php.

Section titled “Common Pitfalls”
  • Keep required Capell packages on compatible v4 releases: capell-app/admin, capell-app/block-library, capell-app/core, capell-app/frontend, capell-app/layout-builder.
  • Run migrations before opening package resources or public routes.
  • Review package configuration before production-like verification: config/capell-content-sections.php.
  • Review middleware, throttling, signatures, and public-output safety in routes/web.php before exposing routes.
  • Keep public Blade and cached HTML free of authoring markers, model IDs, permissions, signed editor URLs, and lazy database queries.
  • Custom write integrations must preserve invalidation for content-sections cache tags.

Troubleshooting

Section titled “Troubleshooting”
Symptom Likely cause Check Fix
Package surface is missing after install Provider or manifest is not loaded Confirm capell.json, package composer.json, and provider registration Reinstall the package, refresh Composer autoload, and clear host caches
Admin screen or command fails on missing table Package migrations have not run Check the tables listed in Data Model Run host migrations and rerun the focused package test
Route returns unexpected output Route cache, middleware, or signed URL setup does not match the package route file Check the route files listed in Technical Shape Clear route cache and verify middleware before exposing public routes
Public output leaks unexpected state Render data, cache variation, or authoring boundary has regressed Check public Blade, cache tags, and public-output safety tests Move data loading out of Blade and rerun the package public-output tests
