Is there a possibility to update all slugs of all pages in all languages?
In an installation of one of my clients are hundreds of pages in multiple languages with wrong slugs (e.g.: prefix translate+german page name instead of translated page name etc.).
I remember an upgrade wizard in TYPO3 v9 but in version i cannot find this wizard.
This upgrade wizards appears if you just empty all slug fields of the table pages which is the fastest way to renew all slugs.
For special cases, maybe you would like to build your own Command.
Some nice thoughts (and helper methods) have been collected under TYPO3/Extbase How to create unique slug within create action?

We are migrating a TYPO3 4.7.14 site with news 1.4.0 to TYPO3 7.6.28 with news 6.3.0.
When we started all news are migrated and are ok on the new server.
But in the time after the news migration some news are added to the old site and now they must be migrated to the new server.
How could this be done?
A t3d Export / Import don't work.
The news are containing a lot of content elements, so it would be an incredible amount of work to do it by hand.
I'd advise to make the whole migration-process new, perhaps only with the news-pages, news-plugins (content-elements saved in the table tt_content with the list_type tx_news or resembling) and news-records.
Problem is primary the update to version 6.2 of TYPO3 as the FAL (file abstraction layer) was introduced and all media-files in the news are getting lost if the corresponding update is not done properly.
Keep in mind that you've to care about one setting in file-storage records (usually for the fileadmin-folder): the checkbox that case-sensitive filenames are allowed. Else a mess is predictable and much additional work too.
If you do it like I proposed only for the news-records and related records, you've to export and import also the tables starting with sys_file, but keep in mind that you really import only then in the upper version instead overwriting the whole table, as there might be still other media-files.
I'm using TYPO3 7.6 with the latest tx_news release from TER.
I want to show two news plugins at one page: one is configured to show all news from storage folder "A"; the other one is configured to show only the latest record from storage folder "B".
Now, once the first plugin paginates, the second one renders empty content since it tries to paginate as well (which doesn't make sense since it should display only the latest record).
So, my question is: How can I separate the pagination between both plugins?
In TYPO3 7.6 there is no solution to your issue, sorry. Workarounds include adding manual pagination for the second plugin or overriding the second widget with one that forces a different ID.
In TYPO3 8.6+ you can override the ID of each widget which causes the URL scope to change so you can isolate parameters for each widget. More information can be found on https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/core/8.7/Changelog/8.6/Feature-47006-ExtendTheWidgetIdentifierWithCustomString.html
I tweaked the fluid template to totally avoid the pagination in this case (based on "settings.templateLayout"
In the meantime (I don't know whether it was in place three years ago) there is an option Hide the pagination in the news plugin. You will find it in the tab Additional.
So if you place more than one list view on one page, you can disable pagination for all lists, which should not get paginated.
I'm using tx_news with imported news entries from tt_news.
The import worked well, but some news contain "old" links in the body field of this form
/index.php?id=10&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=123&tx_ttnews[mode]=single&tx_ttnews[backPID]=2&no_cache=1
Can these links be "mapped" somehow to work with tx_news?
Using Typo3 7.6.12
In short, this is not possible. However there are several options I am thinking of. In general those links should be defined by using the EXT:linkhandler
1) Convert manually: Sounds sad but if not too many links are there, it is certainly the fastest one.
2) Use one of the hooks of TYPO3 which are used during the bootstrapping and do custom redirects. E.g. $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['tslib/index_ts.php']['preprocessRequest'].
3) Hook into the error handling and redirect right before showing any error page. One example to check out could be an ext I did: https://github.com/georgringer/fast_redirect. It must be certainly modified to fit your needs.
What you can actually do as well, which I did for a big import a while ago: Remove all news records again, truncate the table and use any PHP script and fill up the table tx_news_domain_model_newswith the same amount of news entries found in tt_news and set the uid to the one of tt_news and set the import_source field to TT_NEWS_IMPORT and the import_id field as well to the uid of the tt_news uid. After that, the import will pick the dummy tx_news_domain_model_news record, found by findOneByImportSourceAndImportId() and will enrich it with the regular data. You will end with news records having the same uid.
For the construction of an extensive list of links, since the source page is a thematic portal, I am looking for a suitable EXT., Which also runs under TYPO3 7.6 LTS.
it if the list of links to a permits the use of categories and multiple categorization of links is possible would be nice. should Weiterrhin the links are described not only the destination address and an alias but here should still an outline of the target page (possibly with photo) be possible.
Additional functions such as proposing links by users, reporting broken links or even a User Voting would nice additional features.
There were times the Modern Linklist, but they were no longer being developed for TYPO3 <6.x.
Is there perhaps somewhere an alternative or as one might like to vorhnandenen solutions might realize? It would be nice of course, without any programming knowledge, since I'm not a programmer.
P.S .: It is not about building a spam list but high quality links with topics relating to the original page.
As this seems to be a straight forward usage you could try to build that extension by yourself with the ExtensionBuilder.
just build up the records neccessary for your data. and let the EB generate all usefull actions: list & show, even create, edit, delete in FE would be possible.
Afterwards you just need to edit the generated fluid templates.

Overview
EB manual
small remark: if you want the newest code state, use the EB from git instead of TER
I`m not aware of an existing extension for it but it could be a good project to learn extbase / fluid.
You should also take a look at
typo3/sysext/fluid_styled_content/Resources/Private/Partials/Menu
and
typo3/sysext/fluid_styled_content/Classes/ViewHelpers/Menu
Fluid Content contains everything you need to create a list like that, you "just" have to combine the necessary bits and pieces.
You can do a lot with TYPO3 core functionality: there is a page type "external URL", pages can have categories by default, there are plenty of menu options (TypoScript HMENU, menu content elements, Fluid menu Viewhelpers). The Linkvalidator can periodically check all links and report broken links.
For suggestions you could add a form. Powermail for example can also store submitted info in database records, so your visitors could prepare page records (they are hidden until you make them visible).
I'm using Typo3 for the first time and have been asked to update a site built on it.
Making changes to existing templates so far has been OK since they were mainly CSS changes or replacing images. Now though I need to create a couple of new page templates.
What's the easiest way to go about this? The existing site has a home.html and layout.hmlt in the fileadmin directory. Do I need to create a new html file there, if so how do I use this as a new template for some of my pages?
I'm coming from a mainly WordPress background in terms of CMS (I've nearly given in a recoded the site as a WordPress site since I think it would be quicker at this stage) but I'd really prefer to figure this out.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out trying to read through the documentation and getting nowhere. The site is using Typo3 version 4.4.6
Thanks!
How you add a new template to your page depends on how templating is handled. Sadly TYPO3 has a poor templating out of the box, so there is most likely an extension that does the job on your site.
Probably one of these:
automaketemplate
templa_voila
flux & fluidpages
Check if one of these extension is installed and add a new page template according to the extensions manual or specify your question afterwards.
Edit:
If plain TYPO3 was used, you'll find something like
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEMPLATE
page.10 {
file = fileadmin/myTemplate.html
}
in your Typoscript. You can add tmplate files like the ones that are already there. To use a different template on a page, you have to replace the page.10.file with the template you want to use. This can be done with a new template record (crated in backend via the template module). But this is a rather anoying procedure to change the template, because you have to create each time you want to change the page template for a page and its children. That is why mostly extensions are used for this.
The out of the box situation gets better with newer TYPO3 versions but in 4.4.6 there are no Backend Layouts that could be uses for a template switch ot something like that.
In Addition to change the mere file you have to adjust the subparts or marker that are filled with the content. You'll find that configured in your TypoScript as well
