TYPO3: Changing the tt_news template markup

Klaus Kjeldsen — Wed, 16 May 2007 20:24:02 +0000

The easy way is to change xhtml setup for the tt_news extension is to back up the div-based tt_news template, and put it somewhere in the fileadmin folder, where you have placed other template stuff such as your general xhtml template for the website. Make your markup changes to the template, and change the tt_news configuration to use the modified template like below.

### Template File ###
plugin.tt_news.templateFile = fileadmin/templates/ext/tt_news_v2_template.html

TYPO3: Setting XHTML 1.1 DOCTYPE

Klaus Kjeldsen — Tue, 10 Apr 2007 15:48:00 +0000

How to change the DocType in the TYPO3 template setup.

config.doctype = xhtml_11
config.xhtmlDoctype = xhtml_11
config.xmlprologue = none
config.xhtml_cleaning = all

The DOCTYPE can be set to these values:

xhtml_trans (XHTML 1.0 Transitional doctype)
xhtml_frames(XHTML 1.0 Frameset doctype)
xhtml_strict (XHTML 1.0 Strict doctype)
xhtml_basic (XHTML basic doctype)
xhtml_11 (XHTML 1.1 doctype)
xhtml_2 (XHTML 2 doctype)
none (NO doctype at all)

The XML prologue can be set to these values:

xml_10 (XML 1.0 prologue)
xml_11 (XML 1.1 prologue)
none (the default XML prologue is not set)

The XHTML cleaning can be enabled by the following values:

all (the content is always processed before it may be stored in cache)
cached (only if the page is put into the cache)
output (only the output code just before it’s echoed out)

Further information about setting the doctype is available in the TSref.

TYPO3: Add tt_news LATEST as TypoScript Object

Klaus Kjeldsen — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 14:47:32 +0000

This shows how to place a news block on a webpage. When using TemplaVoila you can map tt_news LATEST as a TypoScript Object to a specific place in your HTML Template, and it’s possible to narrow it down to certain pages, where the LATEST Object is added in place of other content.

### News LATEST in left column on certain pids
[PIDinRootline = 57,98]
lib.newsLatest < plugin.tt_news
lib.newsLatest {
        code >
        code = LATEST
        pid_list >
        pid_list = 78,134 # the pids where news are stored
        catImageMode = 0
        catTextMode = 0
  }
lib.sidebar < lib.newsLatest
[else]
# Put something else in the lib.sidebar
temp.sidebar = TEXT
temp.sidebar.value = Something else
lib.sidebar < temp.sidebar
[end]

TYPO3: tt_news LIST and SINGLE at the same page

Klaus Kjeldsen — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 14:38:21 +0000

The following TS code enables the feature of showing the tt_news list and the tt_news single view at the same page.

# Clear the code field
plugin.tt_news.code >
plugin.tt_news.code = LIST
# Prevent indexing of the LIST view
config.index_enable = 0
 
[globalVar = GP:tx_ttnews|swords = ]
# Do nothing (reverse hack)
[else]
# Set code to SEARCH if swords (search is done) exists
plugin.tt_news.code = SEARCH
[end]
 
[globalVar = GP:tx_ttnews|tt_news > 0]
# Set code to SINGLE, if the GETvar tx_ttnews[tt_news] exists
plugin.tt_news.code = SINGLE
# Enable indexing of the SINGLE view
config.index_enable = 1
[global]

TYPO3: XHTML Valid 3 Level Menu in Typoscript

Klaus Kjeldsen — Thu, 29 Mar 2007 17:54:18 +0000

This is sort of a long snippet, but anyway it is an example of making a vertical 3 level menu, which expand and collapse according to the active and current chosen list-item / page. The menu made as nested unordered list, and further it is wrapped in a box made of divs, where the title of active parent page to the menu is shown. The pattern of the typoscript menu could be repeated, if a fourth level is wanted, and it could be shortened to a 1 or 2 level menu.

## SubMenu [Begin]
# Removes the menubox from the page ids: 19, 23 (if the page does not have subpages, you don’t want an empty box) 
[PIDinRootline = 19,23]
# do nothing (PIDupinRootline doesn’t seem to work?)
[else]
boxtop = TEXT
# get the title of the page on the first level of the rootline.
boxtop.data = leveltitle:1
boxtop.wrap = |
boxbottom = TEXT
boxbottom.value = 

[end]

lib.subMenu = COA

lib.subMenu {

# include top of columnbox

9 < boxtop

# making the menu

10 = HMENU

# defines the menu entrylevel

10.entryLevel = 1

10.1 = TMENU

10.1 {

noBlur = 1

CUR = 1

IFSUB= 1

ACTIFSUB = 1

}

# Formatting of menu normal entries as list items.

10.1.NO {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Current menu item is unlinked and wrapped in span

10.1.CUR {

wrapItemAndSub =

doNotLinkIt = 1

allWrap = |

}

# If the menu item has subs add class plus to change icon to it has subs

10.1.IFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Active items above current to be formatted differently

10.1.ACTIFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Wrap the first level of the menu inside an unordered list

10.1.wrap =

10.2 = TMENU

10.2 {

noBlur = 1

CUR = 1

IFSUB= 1

ACTIFSUB = 1

}

# Same formatting of menu entries as list items.

10.2.NO {

wrapItemAndSub =

ATagParams =

}

# Current menu item is unlinked and marked too

10.2.CUR {

wrapItemAndSub =

doNotLinkIt = 1

allWrap = |

}

# If the menu item has subs add class plus to change icon

10.2.IFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Active items above current to be formatted differently as for first level

10.2.ACTIFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Wrap the second level of the menu inside an unordered list

10.2.wrap =

10.3 = TMENU

10.3 {

noBlur = 1

CUR = 1

IFSUB = 1

ACTIFSUB = 1

}

# Same formatting of menu entries as list items.

10.3.NO {

wrapItemAndSub =

ATagParams =

}

# Current menu item is unlinked and marked too

10.3.CUR {

wrapItemAndSub =

doNotLinkIt = 1

allWrap = |

}

# If the menu item has subs add class plus to change icon

10.3.IFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Active items above current to be formatted differently as for higher levels

10.3.ACTIFSUB {

wrapItemAndSub =

}

# Wrap the third level of the menu inside an unordered list

10.3.wrap =

# end of columnbox

11 < boxbottom

}

## SubMenu [End]

TYPO3: Copyright Notice with Automatic Year Update and Secondary Language Support

Klaus Kjeldsen — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 22:31:01 +0000

The following TypoScript shows how to make a copyright notice, which by itself updates the year to the current year.

## Copyright Notice [Begin]
# Automatic year update
lib.copyright = TEXT
lib.copyright.data = date:U
lib.copyright.strftime = %Y
lib.copyright.wrap =  | © Firma 
# secondary language copyright notice
[globalVar = GP:L = 1]
lib.copyright.wrap =  | © Company 
[end]
## Copyright Notice [End]

TYPO3: Making a simple menu as an unordered list in XHTML

Klaus Kjeldsen — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 19:16:42 +0000

This example how to make a menu as an unordered list, by enabling ACT (active) and CUR (current) it sets the

tags with attributes class=”active” and id=”current” respectively. The current page is wrapped in and not linked.

## MainMenu [Begin]
lib.mainMenu = HMENU
lib.mainMenu.entryLevel = 0
lib.mainMenu.wrap = |    
lib.mainMenu.1 = TMENU
lib.mainMenu.1 {
        noBlur = 1
        ACT = 1
        CUR = 1
}
lib.mainMenu.1.NO {
        allWrap = 
|

}

lib.mainMenu.1.ACT {

allWrap =

}

lib.mainMenu.1.CUR {

allWrap =

doNotLinkIt = 1

}

## MainMenu [End]

The above example can be extended using field:title and field:subtitle, if a specific id for styling is needed or if some information should be placed as value in the title attribute.

lib.mainMenu.1.NO {
        allWrap = 
|

ATagParams.dataWrap = id="{field:title}" title="{field:subtitle}"

}

lib.mainMenu.1.ACT {

allWrap =

ATagParams.dataWrap = id="{field:title}" title="{field:subtitle}"

}

        NO.linkWrap = | / |*||*| |
        NO.stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
        CUR = 1
        CUR.allWrap = |
