Fixed bug where if a user was edited on the Admin Panel under 'Admin>Users> Edit User' changes would not apply without every value being changed.
This bug originates from LittleLink Admin (the fork of which this fork is based on).
One part of this issue was that most fields were required to fill in. If only one would be left, empty, none would apply. The problem was if this requirement was removed, the password would always overwrite the current password, even when left empty.
This meant you could only edit users if you knew their password, otherwise their passwords would be changed, probably preventing that user from login in ever again.
After some experimenting, I implemented the easiest fix I could come up with. A simple if-else statement that checks if the password field is empty and if so only saves the other parameters without touching the password. If the password is changed, the changes will be applied normally.
Also fixed the profile image size for the default placeholder image.
Added PHPinfo section to the config editor to display information about the current state of PHP.
This new section can be found on the Admin Panel under 'Admin>Config>PHP Info'.
For this, a new route and section in the admin controller have been added. The page is loaded as phpinfo.blade.php with the route .../panel/phpinfo if the user is authenticated as an admin.
I added the usual dark mode detection to the page, with an extra section that changes the background color according to the preferred theme setting. The page itself can be downloaded and saved as an HTML, for this JavaScript is used.
Added visual HTML editor for editing HTML on the footer and home pages. This editor is based on the open source CKEditor a Smart Visual Text Editor for HTML coded in JavaScript.

Fixed bug where users littlelink pages (domain.com/@username) would display a 404 error. This was caused due to the .env config file not containing an App URL. This issue could be solved by simply adding a URL to the config, this is now not necessary anymore, making the setup process easier and less confusing.
I changed every instance of "{{ config('app.url') }}" to "{{ url(' ') }}". This effectively automatically uses the correct URL for LittleLink links, even if LittleLink Custom is set up in a subdirectory.
In my testing, I couldn't find any problems this might have caused, so this appears to do the job just as well as setting the URL in the config. If I find any issues with this, I will revert this change.
As part of the new logo (https://github.com/JulianPrieber/littlelink-custom/milestone/1) I'm now using the new 'logo.svg' vector logo.
For this, I added an if-else statement in most cases, which first check for a custom logo uploaded by the admin or the avatar of an individual user. If the image doesn't exist, the default logo (logo.svg) is used.
This is one of multiple public path edits. For simplified usability, I am integrating the public Laravel directory into the root directory.
For this, I am changing every instance of 'public_path' to 'base_path' and will use this format in future changes as well.
