EXT:news_content_elements

Manage content elements directly in news articles — via the familiar TYPO3 page module instead of the compact inline field.


What Does the Extension Do?

News articles with extensive content — text, images, tables, plugins — are difficult to manage in the standard news form. EXT:news_content_elements solves this: a button in the news form opens the page module directly for the respective article. Editors can edit content elements there just as comfortably as on a normal page.

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 >
[end]
