EXT:news_content_elements
Manage content elements directly in news articles — via the familiar TYPO3 page module instead of the compact inline field.
The standard news form is a poor fit for articles with extensive content. This extension adds a button to the news form that opens the page module directly for that article — editors work with content elements there just as they would on any normal page.
Features
- Dedicated page module view showing only the content elements belonging to the specific news record
- Any content element type can be used
- Familiar editing interface for editors without retraining
Prerequisite
The SysFolder containing the news records must have “Contains Plugin” set to “News”.
Installation
composer req georgringer/news-content-elements
Resetting the Backend Layout in News Context
If the backend layout in the page module should be reset to the default column layout (colPos 0 only) in the news editing context:
[traverse(page, "doktype") == 254 && traverse(page, "module") == 'news' && request && traverse(request.getQueryParams(), 'tx_news_id') > 0]
mod.web_layout.BackendLayouts >
