I have purchased Metronic 9 from themeforest. but it does not include Laravel version also I've read there is vite version available but it is not included in downloaded file. and when I downloaded from keentheme it is 8.3.3
Hi Jagdish Patel
Config path
The KT_THEME_LAYOUT_DIR value should point to the demo you're using. For Demo1, it should be:
'KT_THEME_LAYOUT_DIR' => 'layout/metronic/demo1',
Make sure the full config line ends with a semicolon and the path matches the actual directory structure under resources/views/layout/metronic/. If you're using a different demo, update the path accordingly (e.g., demo2, demo9, etc.).
Multi-demo Laravel version
There is no multi-demo Laravel package. Metronic v8 Laravel is a starter kit — it ships pre-configured with a single demo (Demo1 by default). The 64 demos you see in the HTML package are not individually ported to Laravel.
If you want to use a different demo (like Demo9 you mentioned earlier), you'll need to:
1. Copy the demo-specific assets from the HTML package (CSS, JS, images) into your Laravel project
2. Adapt the layout views to match the demo's HTML structure
3. Update the bootstrap config in config/theme.php to reference the correct layout directory
Keenicons are not showing in laravel version also while downloading Laravel is not running because of following path issue in settings config file.
'KT_THEME_BOOTSTRAP' => [
'default' => \App\Core\Bootstrap\Metronic\Demo1\BootstrapDefault::class,
'auth' => \App\Core\Bootstrap\Metronic\Demo1\BootstrapAuth::class,
'system' => \App\Core\Bootstrap\Metronic\Demo1\BootstrapSystem::class,
],
'KT_THEME' => 'metronic',
# Theme layout templates directory
'KT_THEME_LAYOUT_DIR' => 'layout/metronic/demo1'.
Hi Jagdish,
We have fixed the metronic8/demo9 layout builder export problem.
We will consider upgrading Metronic 8 Laravel to Vite in the future.
Feel free to let us know if you have any issues.
Thank you
Okay I got it but I need to use Bootstrap version. So v8.3.3 is good but it doesn't support vite. and I want to implement template of demo 9 but Layout builder at https://preview.keenthemes.com/metronic8/demo9/?page=layout-builder link is not working.
Hi Jagdish,
You purchased Metronic 9 from ThemeForest but couldn't find the Laravel version in the download. When you tried downloading from keenthemes.com, you got v8.3.3 instead.
This is a common point of confusion — here's how it works:
ThemeForest zip contains the HTML demos only (the metronic-tailwind-html-demos folder). Framework integrations like Laravel, React, Vue, and Angular are not inside the ThemeForest zip.
Laravel integration is a separate starter kit on GitHub: 👉 metronic-tailwind-html-integration
Steps to get started:
Why you got v8.3.3: The download page at devs.keenthemes.com/metronic hosts the v8 (Bootstrap) package. Metronic v9 (Tailwind) is distributed via ThemeForest (HTML demos) and GitHub (framework integrations).
If you run into issues setting up the Laravel project, check the integration guide or ask here — happy to help!
