This package doesn't support laravel 5.8 anymore? I think Laravel 5.8 isn't so old. Should I use Laravel 7.0 which is latest version? Is there any version which supports laravel 5.8?

Easily installed in my Laravel 5.8.35

composer require spatie/laravel-activitylog "^3.9.1"

You can always check the requires section (compatibility) of any package at Packagist with your Laravel/PHP version etc.

Indeed Spatie's activitylog doens't support Laravel 5.8 anymore.

That's what's specified in the composer.json:

"illuminate/config": "^6.0|^7.0",
"illuminate/database": "^6.0|^7.0",
"illuminate/support": "^6.0|^7.0"

I would advise you to upgrade to the latest version of Laravel. Many useful features were added.

Thank you Then, which version of package support laravel 5.8? – LoveCoding Mar 30 '20 at 17:35
In version [3.9.2](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-activitylog/releases/tag/3.9.2) they dropped support for Laravel 5. So everything before that release should still work with your application. – Dan Mar 30 '20 at 17:39
Great!. 3.9.1 worked for laravel 5. 8. composer require spatie/laravel-activitylog:3.9.1 – LoveCoding Mar 30 '20 at 17:45
