How to create Setting

You can create a Setting through Seeds and add a field on Setting Form for that Setting.

Create a json file of name settings.json at .../Database/Seeds/json/ this directory.

settings.json

[

    {
        "category": "global",
        "key": "site_title",
        "value": "VaahCMS"
    },
    {
        "category": "global",
        "key": "site_description",
        "value": "Another awesome site on VaahCMS"
    }

]

To run this seed, you have to create seedSetting() method in DatabaseTableSeeder.php file.

public function seedSettings()
    {


        $list = $this->getListFromJson("settings.json");

        foreach($list as $item)
        {
            $exist = \DB::table( 'vh_settings' )
                ->where( 'category', $item['category'] )
                ->where( 'key', $item['key'] )
                ->first();

            if (!$exist){

                if(isset($item['type']) && $item['type']=='json')
                {
                    $item['value']=json_encode($item['value']);
                }

                \DB::table( 'vh_settings' )->insert( $item );
            } else{
                \DB::table( 'vh_settings' )
                    ->where( 'category', $item['category'] )
                    ->where( 'key', $item['key'] )
                    ->update($item);
            }
        }

    }

Now you just have to create a field in Setting page at .../Vue/pages/settings/ directory.
