Php Structure

main.php: Main Application Layout

This file wraps all common HTML structure for pages: <html>, <head>, <body>, and site components like the sidebar, topbar, scripts, and global modal.

It uses a placeholder <?= $content ?? '' ?> to inject view-specific content.

This is filled dynamically by each content page using output buffering.

    
<?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/session.php';?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/theme-settings.php';?>

<head>
    <?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/title-meta.php';?>

    <?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/head-css.php';?>
</head>

<?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/body.php';?>

	<?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/loader.php';?>

	<!-- Start Main Wrapper -->
	<?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/main-wrapper.php';?>

        <?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/menu.php';?>

		<?= $content ?? '' ?>

	</div>
	<!-- Start Main Wrapper -->

	<?php include_once __DIR__ . '../partials/modal-popup.php'; ?>

    <?php require_once __DIR__ . '../partials/vendor-scripts.php'; ?>

</body>

</html>

index.php: Content Page

Each page uses ob_start() to buffer its HTML content and assign it to the $content variable, which is then injected into main.php.

This allows your pages to stay clean and maintain a consistent layout across your project.

    
<?php ob_start();?>

	<!-- Page HTML goes here -->

<?php
$content = ob_get_clean();
require_once '../partials/main.php';?>

Sass, Scss Installation

Overview

Sass (Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets) is a CSS preprocessor that extends CSS with variables, nesting, mixins, and more. This guide covers the installation and setup of Sass for the Dreams POS template.

Prerequisites
Node.js Installation

Before installing Sass, ensure you have Node.js installed on your system:

Installation Steps
1
Install NPM Package Manager

Install the latest version of npm package manager:

npm install -g npm@latest
Note: This ensures you have the latest npm version
2
Install Sass Globally

Install Dart Sass globally using npm:

npm install -g sass
3
Verify Installation

Check if Sass is installed correctly:

sass --version
Compilation Methods
Method Description Default Sass Command npm Script Command
One-time Compilation (Production)

Compile SCSS files once for production with minified output

 sass assets/scss/main.scss:assets/css/style.css npm run sass
Watch Mode (Development)

Automatically recompile on file changes for real-time development

 sass assets/scss/main.scss:assets/css/style.css --watch npm run sass:watch
Run Without Source Map (Production/Optional)

Compile SCSS without generating source maps, ideal for production builds

 sass assets/scss/main.scss:assets/css/style.css --style=compressed --no-source-map npm run sass:no-map
Best Practices
Development
  • Use watch mode for real-time updates
  • Enable source maps for debugging
  • Organize SCSS with partials
Production
  • Use compressed output style
  • Minimize file size
  • Optimize for performance

Dynamic Title Feature

Overview

The Dreams POS template implements an intelligent title generation system that analyzes PHP filenames and converts them into user-friendly page titles. This system processes filenames through multiple transformation steps to create readable, properly formatted titles.

File Location: partials/title-meta.php
This file contains the title generation logic
Key Features
Smart Acronym Detection

Converts acronyms UI, AI, JS to uppercase

Smart Suffix Detection

Automatically customize suffixes like "Icons", "Charts", etc.

Word Processing

Converts filename parts to proper title case

SEO Optimized

Creates search-engine friendly titles

Reduced Manual Maintenance

Automatically generates without manual intervention

Professional Appearance

Consistent and polished title formatting

Examples
  • index.php → "Admin Dashboard"
  • custom-fields-settings.php → "Custom Fields Settings"
  • ui-alerts.php → "Alerts"
  • icon-bootstrap.php → "Bootstrap Icons"
  • chart-js.php → "JS Charts"
How It Works
  1. System reads the current PHP filename
  2. Removes file extension (.php)
  3. Converts hyphens to spaces
  4. Applies smart acronym detection
  5. Generates final title
Title Format

All generated titles follow this consistent format:

<title> {Generated Title} | Dreams POS - Inventory Management & Admin Dashboard Template</title>
Example Output

For sales-dashboard.php:

Sales Dashboard | Dreams POS - Inventory Management & Admin Dashboard Template

Note

The system automatically handles title generation. For custom acronyms and suffixes like "Icons" or "Charts", you may need to manually add them to the title generation logic in partials/title-meta.php .

RTL Language Support

Overview

The template includes a sample RTL layout page (layout-rtl.php) that demonstrates how to implement Right-to-Left layout for Arabic, Hebrew, and other RTL languages.

Implementation

RTL is implemented through conditional CSS loading in head-css.php :

// Regular Bootstrap CSS for non-RTL pages
<?php if ($page !== 'layout-rtl.php') {   ?>
    <!-- Bootstrap CSS -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<?php }?>

// RTL Bootstrap CSS for RTL pages
<?php if ($page === 'layout-rtl.php') {   ?>
    <!-- Bootstrap CSS -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/bootstrap.rtl.min.css">
<?php }?>
Benefits
  • Improved user experience for RTL users
  • Professional multilingual application
  • Easy implementation and maintenance
Note

Access layout-rtl.php to see the RTL layout sample. Use this as a reference to implement RTL in your own pages.
