Configuration

Let's see which configuration we have available. Opening the file config/notifynder.php file We can start from the first configuration:

#####- model##### Note: if you are going to use Notifynder as polymoprhic you can jump this option. This option allow you to use a different model from the default User model. If your model has a different name or is in a different namespace reference it here.

#####- polymorphic##### This option allow you to use Notifynder as a multiple model relations (Polymorphic) that means if you want to notify different Model entities swap this value to true.

#####- notification_model##### This option allow you to extend the default Notification model provided from Notifynder. Just create your custom Notification Model, extend it with Fenos\Notifynder\Models\Notification and reference your custom Model to this option.

#####- translations##### This option is the container of your notifications translations. If you wish to have a multi language notification system add your translation to this option with the following syntax:

[
   // language
   'it' => [
       // name of category
       'name.category' => 'text to {parse value} translate' // translation
    ]
]

Tip: if you want to keep your translations in an different file then just create a new file returning an array of translations and use the require('filename.php') as value of this option
