TYPO3 Is this possible to remove add content button from backend for specific custom layout - typo3

My typo3 version is 11.5.10.
I want to remove the + Content button for specific column of our page layout:

The extension bootstrap_package is using a field like that and the trick is just to omit colPos in the backendlayout.
In the following code you can see that in the one defined column colPos is just missing:
3 {
columns {
1 {
name = LLL:EXT:bootstrap_package/Resources/Private/Language/Backend.xlf:backend_layout.column.subnav
colspan = 3
}
2 {
name = LLL:EXT:bootstrap_package/Resources/Private/Language/Backend.xlf:backend_layout.column.left
colPos = 1
colspan = 3
}
3 {
name = LLL:EXT:bootstrap_package/Resources/Private/Language/Backend.xlf:backend_layout.column.normal
colPos = 0
colspan = 6
}
}
}
For the case you want to look up by yourself, it's in the TypoScript-template bootstrap_package/Configuration/TsConfig/Page/Mod/WebLayout/BackendLayouts/subnavigation_left_2_columns.tsconfig.
This solution works without any additional extension or PHP code.

That's not possible with TYPO3 core.
you might disable all possible CEs for that column if you use an additional extension: content defender
At least you can assign a column number where you skip the rendering in the front end.

TYPO3: configure available types for tx_news content element relation

Is it possible to configure which content element types are available for the content elements relation in tx_news records?
I have a backend layout which allows only gridelements in tt_content. The regular content elements are only allowed within a grid elements container.
Currently I face the problem, that in news records it's only possible to add grid elements:
I'd like to allow only some specific content elements in news records.
Update:
The above mentioned restriction is done via TSConfig for the BackendLayout:
mod.web_layout.BackendLayouts {
1 {
title = Standardseite
config {
backend_layout {
colCount = 1
rowCount = 1
rows {
1 {
columns {
1 {
name = Content
colPos = 0
allowed = gridelements_pi1
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
When I remove the line allowed = gridelements_pi1, all content element types are available again.
But regardless of the allowed setting for backend layouts I'd like to have just a small subset of content element types available for news records.
Sometimes the solution can be so simple and obvious! Thx for hint, Georg Ringer!
Just override the settings for the news sys folder:
[45 in tree.rootLineIds]
# this changes the allowed CTypes. Add more as a comma separated list
mod.web_layout.BackendLayouts.1.config.backend_layout.rows.1.columns.1.allowed = textmedia
# this sets the default CType to prevent an error with INVALID VALUE ("text")
TCAdefaults.tt_content.CType = textmedia
[global]
By the way, an even better solution would be to use TCEFORM.tt_content.CType.removeItem = ..., but this would require to update the list each time you add a new CType.

Custom Content Element with IRRE via Typoscript -> empty array

i have a little problem getting a custom content element via typoscript on all pages.
i´ve created a custom element without any extensions (like mask or dce) so im only using
TYPO3 core functions. This Element is a simple thingy that just uses irre for creating
different boxes to be displayed in the frontend.
tt_content.box = COA
tt_content.box {
10 = FLUIDTEMPLATE
10 {
file = EXT:xxx_elements/Resources/Private/Templates/Box.html
partialRootPath = EXT:xxx_setup/Resources/Private/Content/Partials
layoutRootPath = EXT:xxx_setup/Resources/Private/Content/Layouts
dataProcessing {
10 = TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\DataProcessing\DatabaseQueryProcessor
10 {
table = tx_xxxelements_box
orderBy = sorting
where {
data = field:uid
intval = 1
wrap = tt_content=|
}
as = boxitems
}
}
}
}
rendered with normal fluid like
<f:for each="{boxitems}" as="boxitem">
<boxitem.header>...
</f:for>
so everything works fine as long as i use it as a regular content element that is placed
on a page. now i put one element into a storagefolder and try to reuse this element on all pages via typoscript
where 10 is the ID of the content element
lib.SubFooter = COA
lib.SubFooter {
10 = RECORDS
10 {
tables = tt_content
source = 10
}
}
the lib is rendered correct, but the "boxitems" array is empty on all pages :-(
now the funny part:
if i place the element with ID 10 on a page the boxitems array is filled for both element and lib...
Here is an image with the variable dump for different situations:
element, lib, element+lib
Unfortunately, I could not find a satisfactory solution to the problem. In the end, I have built the content element as a normal element instead of IRRE, then the integration with typoscript works as expected.
maybe you're missing the pid ;-)
dataProcessing {
10 = TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\DataProcessing\DatabaseQueryProcessor
10 {
....
pidInList.field = pid
and you can simplify in my opinion in this case the where clause:
where.dataWrap = tt_content={field:uid}
because you're not matching against vars from outside...

Typo3: How to render the titles of the backend-columns in Fluid/ExtBase?

I'm not sure if I used the correct terms :D
Let's imagine that my backend-layout looks like this:
backend_layout {
colCount = 1
rowCount = 1
rows {
1 {
columns {
1 {
name = Baguette
colPos = 0
}
}
}
}
}
I'm looking for a TypoScript which looks kinda like this:
[...]
variables {
title < ****the stuff i'm looking for***
title.select.where = colPos = 0
}
The script should automatically take the name of my backend-column ("Baguette") and save it into the "title"-variable.
Then i can simply add <f:format.raw> {title} </f:format.raw> in my template to output it in the frontend.
Does something like this exist?
Btw: It's necessary to be able to select the colPos since I'm having many columns with many titles to output.
This does not exist. The titles are only known to the backend and are not available in the frontend context.
Actually the frontend does not know anything about the backend grid. All you have in the frontend, is the column number.

Build HMENU with Information from TCE

I have extended the TCA for every Backend-Page on the Page-Tree. One of the new Options is the "Page-Type", for example "PressPage". With this Extension, i have a new databasefield in the table "pages".
Now i would build an HMENU/TMENU with all pages, below this folder.
[...]
lib.MetaPressNavigation{
special = directory
special.value = ID_FROM_FOLDER_WITH_PAGETYPE_PRESSPAGE
[...]
But i have no idea to realize them with typoscript.
I hope anyone can help me.
Thanks.
EDIT:
Now - i have try it with an extended TCA. It's very easy for any User to make some configuration for this projectpage. The Users can set a value with an Checkbox in a special tab.
I have try to get the page out form the database, with this special config - any page have in the database on the column "tx_meta_pagetype the value 9. I need the UID from this page to build the META-Navigation. It will be full functional - when i give a hardcoded uid, but i need this dynamic.
This is my attemp, to get the UID from the database:
temp.MetaNavigationIds = CONTENT
temp.MetaNavigationIds{
table = pages
select.Where = tx_meta_pagetype = 9 #tx_meta_pagetype is set from the TCA
renderObj = TEXT
renderObj.field = uid
renderObj.stdWrap = |
}
lib.MetaNavigation = HMENU
lib.MetaNavigation{
special = directory
special.value < temp.MetaNavigationIds #the UID of configured page, that i need for the menu
1 = TMENU
1 {
wrap = <ul> | </ul>
NO{
wrapItemAndSub = <li> | </i>
wrapItemAndSub.insertData = 1
allStdWrap.insertData = 1
}
}
}
I have try a lot of database question with typoscript, but nothing works.
Be careful, special.value is not a content object but just a property. You are copying a content object (CONTENT) in its place. This does not work.
However it does have stdWrap. Therefore something like
special.value.stdWrap.cObject < temp.MetaNavigationIds
Should work out.
For renderObj.stdWrap = | enter renderObj.wrap = |, instead. Please mind the trailing comma. This will make sure that you actually get a comma separated list of uids. Otherwise your uids would be printed just after each other, thus forming one big number.
Please test each part individually before adding the components together. You should make sure that each pease returns the correct data, otherwise you will never get a working solution.
And of course select.Where must be select.where. Capitalization does matter.
Here is a working example for CONTENT:
page.10 = CONTENT
page.10 {
table = pages
select {
where = doktype = 199
recursive = 99
# Needs to be your root page uid
pidInList = 1
}
renderObj = TEXT
renderObj.field = uid
renderObj.wrap = |,
}
If you are using TYPO3 6.2, I would recommend to use the new category system. You can create different categories in the TYPO3 backend and assign those categories to your pages.
With this, you can create a HMENU/TMENU like shown below:
20 = HMENU
20 {
special = categories
special.value = 1,2
1 = TMENU
1.NO {
...
}
}
If you do not use TYPO3 6.2 or do not want to use the category system, you can use a userfunction to return the pages which matches your "Page-Type".
HMENU/TMENU TypoScript will be like shown below.
lib.leftmenu.20 = HMENU
lib.leftmenu.20.special = userfunction
lib.leftmenu.20.special.userFunc = user_myspecialmenu_pi1->getPressPages
The TypoScript above is just an example, and you need to code the userfunction your own.
A detailed reference of the special property userfunction is available here and a example can be found here.

Illustrate content from FCE in another way

I have some FCEs which are working fine. Now I want to display the data for another render type and I have to change from div to ul. Is there a way to extract the data fields with Typoscript? Currently the FCEs are included as Page-Content Elements in another template. The data processing contains the following TS Code
10= RECORDS
10.source.current=1
10.tables = tt_content
10.wrap = <!--TYPO3SEARCH_begin--> | <!--TYPO3SEARCH_end-->
#ggzone:
I tried this:
10 = COA
10 {
10 = TEXT
10 {
current = 1
typolink.parameter.field = field_link_text
required = 1
wrap = <h3>|</h3>
}
}
But I only get <h3>39,40,57</h3>. That are the IDs from the FCEs. How do I get the field value?
ofcourse... this is an example how to render a FCE... u can also use a Typoscript select in there from tt_content. there are many snippets outside. for example just replace your snippet with this one just to see if it works. dont forget to edit the "field_yourfieldname" to your field_xxxx
10 = COA
10 {
10 = TEXT
10 {
current = 1
typolink.parameter.field = field_yourfieldname
required = 1
wrap = <h3>|</h3>
}
}
typolink is not the only where you can use .field as typolinks uses the ID to link to a page (&id=123) you will get it. you can also use value.field or stdWrap.field.
heres another example which should work:
10 = HTML
10.value.field = field_yourfieldname
take a look aroun in google.. its not easy to find some snippets but also not that hard. as i use this not often i also need to take a look around everytime
