The About tab
The settings panel can show an About tab with the installed Earmark and Livewire versions, your limits, and optionally server details and a repository link.
Who can see it
By default it only appears in the local environment. Decide who sees it with a gate, much like Horizon and Telescope:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Pixelworxio\Earmark\Earmark;
Earmark::about(fn (Request $request): bool => $request->user()?->isAdmin() === true);
When the tab is hidden, none of its details are sent to the browser.
What it shows
'about' => [
'version' => null, // override the version shown
'repository' => null, // an https:// link, or null for none
'server_details' => true, // PHP, Laravel and store
],
On a public site, turn off server_details so visitors see versions without details about your server.
Visitor settings (layout, position, appearance, saved views) are always available to everyone. The gate only controls the About tab.
