What This Plugin Adds

Section titled “What This Plugin Adds”

Socials is an Available, Schema-owning Capell package in the Capell Foundation product group. It ships as capell-app/socials and extends these surfaces: admin, frontend, console, shared.

Socials adds site-scoped registered and custom social profiles, shared follow and share defaults, and an explicit Block Library widget.

Admins manage profiles and previews on the Socials page, then editors place follow or share links on selected pages. Visitors receive accessible links without social SDKs or tracking scripts.

Evidence: src/Filament/Pages/SocialsPage.php, src/Blocks/SocialsBlockDefinitionProvider.php, capell.json, src/Blocks/SocialsBlockRenderer.php, resources/views/blocks/socials.blade.php, tests/Unit/BuildShareLinksActionTest.php.

Status details:

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

Why It Matters

Section titled “Why It Matters”

For developers: The network registry, public resolver contract, and typed render data keep profile validation separate from admin forms and public rendering.

For teams: Teams can approve social profiles once per site, reuse them in follow blocks, and offer canonical page sharing without embedding third-party scripts.

Evidence: src/Contracts/SocialNetworkRegistry.php, src/Contracts/SocialProfilesResolver.php, src/Actions/ResolveSiteSocialProfilesAction.php, tests/Unit/SocialNetworkRegistryTest.php, src/Actions/SaveSocialSiteConfigurationAction.php, src/Actions/BuildFollowSocialRenderDataAction.php, src/Actions/BuildShareSocialRenderDataAction.php, tests/Unit/ResolveSiteSocialProfilesActionTest.php.

  • Custom write integrations must preserve invalidation for socials cache tags.

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
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
