Typo3 10.4.1 extend pages with an file ref - typo3

hope a knowing being reads this.
The task is simple but something went wrong.
Ive wrote an extension to extend the pages table for every page with some new props.
These values are:
1 boolean value (is extension active)
1 Text value (e.g css class name)
1 Filelink to sys_file for uploaded images
The fields itself are working as expected in backend.
fields in backend
But if i try to access them via fluid in frontend, there is only a lony 1 (Int) saved?
In Fluid:
{data.tx_mnadditionalpagefields_extended_background_image}
leads to this -> 1 (Integer)
What iam doing wrong?

Extension download (WIP): download

For images/files, the local table stores only the count of references to files. (int)1 means, there's one reference.
Have a look at DataProcessing for how to use these filereferences with Fluid:

Missing TCA labels in inline tt_content relation

We are using the Mask extension for some of our content Elements. (It basically adds dynamic CTypes and additional columns in the tt_content).
Next we have our custom extension whose entities should have a relation to an instance of a Mask module. Which works. The only problem is, that the labels of the inline element aren't showing up.
If we add the same Mask module as normal page content, the labels are showing up just fine.
Domain Model of our ext:
/**
* Returns the intro
*
* #return \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\MASK\Mask\Domain\Model\Content> $intro
*/
public function getIntro()
{
return $this->intro;

TYPO3 TCA label with UserFunc - how to get HTML formatted label?

I want to format the title showing in a list of TCA items which can contain italic text. But whatever I try, I get only unformatted text - even from RTE text fields.
My base information is "partA", "partB", "partC" and I need a title like "partA : partC - part B"
My Code so far:
<?php
return [
'ctrl' => [
'title' => 'LLL:EXT:myext/Resources/Private/Language/myext.xlf:tx_myext_domain_model_myitem',
'label' => 'partC',
'label_alt' => 'partA',
'formattedLabel_userFunc' => T395\myExt\Classes\UserFuncs\MyBEUserFuncs::class.'->getFullMyitemTitle',
'formattedLabel_userFunc_options' => [
'sys_file' => [
'partC','partA','partB'
]
],
'iconfile' => 'fileadmin/Resource/icons/svgs/myext.svg',
],
'columns' => [
'partC' => [
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:myext/Resources/Private/Language/myext.xlf:tx_myext_domain_model_myitem.partC',
'config' => [
'type' => 'text',
'enableRichtext' => true,
],
],
'partA' => [
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:myext/Resources/Private/Language/myext.xlf:tx_myext_domain_model_myitem.partA',
'config' => [
'type' => 'input',
'size' => '5',
'eval' => 'trim',
],
],
'partB' => [
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:myext/Resources/Private/Language/myext.xlf:tx_myext_domain_model_myitem.partC',
'config' => [
'type' => 'input',
'size' => '5',
'eval' => 'trim',
],
],
],
'types' => [
'0' => ['showitem' => 'partA,partB,partC'],
],
];
And the UF:
<?php
T395\myExt\Classes\UserFuncs;
class MyBEUserFuncs
{
public function getFullMyitemTitle(&$params, &$pObj)
{
echo "Hello World!";
$params['title'] = $params['row']['partA'].' : '.$params['row']['partC'].' - '.$params['row']['partB'];
}
}
Even the echo is not showing. Changing the formattedLabel_userFunc to label_userFunc results in getting a string in right order - but right without any text formats like <i> etc but showing them as text. I'm sure, I'm missing something, but I can't figure out what it is - I was also unable to find any code snippets or examples showing the right way - and the docs from TYPO3 saying only that exists formattedLabel_userFunc and it has options - but no proper example there. Hope you can help me. Thank you!
in the documentation for formattedlabel_userfunc you can find:
[...] return formatted HTML for the label and used only for the labels of inline (IRRE) records.
and for label_userfunc there is the warning:
The title is passed later on through htmlspecialchars() so it may not include any HTML formatting.

TYPO3 - Extension TCA - Show backend fields

I'm deveopping my own Typo3 extension and it's not as easy as expected :)
When i create an object in the backend it's working :
But I can't find a way to display the following commands :
move up
move down
enable/disabled
Here is what I tried to show the "enable/disable" icon :
$TCA['tx_productsfaq_domain_model_scenario'] = array (
'ctrl' => array (
'enablecolumns' => [
'disabled' => 'hidden'
]
)
);
.. with no success. In my database the model has a "hidden" column (tinyint). Maybe I forgot something ? All other properties in my TCA work fine.
You need a sorting field in your Database
CREATE table tx_productsfaq_domain_model_scenario (
...
sorting int(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
deleted tinyint(4) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
hidden tinyint(4) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
...
);
and TCA configuration like
$TCA['tx_productsfaq_domain_model_scenario'] = array (
'ctrl' => [
...
'sortby' => 'sorting',
'enablecolumns' => [
'disabled' => 'hidden'
],
...
]
);
It seems you are using the old way to configure your TCA. Please see https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TCAReference/Introduction/Index.html
Use EXT:productsfaq/Configuration/TCA/tx_productsfaq_domain_model_scenario.php
return [
'ctrl' => [
...
'sortby' => 'sorting',
'delete' => 'deleted',
'enablecolumns' => [
'disabled' => 'hidden',
],
...
],
'interface' => [
'showRecordFieldList' => 'hidden, ...'
],
'types' => [
'0' => ['showitem' => 'hidden, ...']
],
'columns' => [
...
]
];
Depending on your TYPO3 version move up, move down will be visible if you switch on extended view and have defined a sorting field (by default it is called sorting with type int).
To have the correct fields and options for sorting and hiding you may use the EXT:extension_builder and generate a dummy extension to identify these fields.
Compare your definition and declaration of the fields ('sorting', 'hidden') in TCA and SQL(!) to a build in table like tt_content.

TCA file, checkbox default checked

I would like to set a checkbox in the backend to default checked.
In my case it is the field showinpreview in the file /typo3conf/ext/news/Configuration/TCA/tx_news_domain_model_media.php.
I changed the value default to 1, but it has no effect:
'showinpreview' => [
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => $ll . 'tx_news_domain_model_media.showinpreview',
'config' => [
'type' => 'check',
'default' => 1
]
],
When I check the TCA File of tt_content for a checked checkbox it looks like this:
'sectionIndex' => [
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:sectionIndex',
'config' => [
'type' => 'check',
'default' => 1,
'items' => [
'1' => [
'0' => 'LLL:EXT:lang/locallang_core.xlf:labels.enabled'
]
]
]
],
The only difference I see is the items. But I do not really understand what this item-value does.
The easiest way to change this value is by overriding TCA with some pageTS. Add following to the pagets of the folder that holds the news records.
TCAdefaults.sys_file_reference.showinpreview = 1
See https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TSconfigReference/PageTsconfig/TCEform/Index.html
For the older EXT:news versions use: TCAdefaults.tx_news_domain_model_media.showinpreview = 1
The value of the field showinpreview is set in news/Configuration/TCA/Overrides/sys_file_reference.php. Apply your change there, and you will be happy.
But be aware: after updating of the news extension your change will be lost.
Just checked - this works for me
'checkbox' => array(
'exclude' => 0,
'label' => 'My Label',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'check',
'default' => '1'
)
),

TYPO3 extbase & IRRE: add existing records with 'foreign_selector'

I "kickstarted" an extension with the extbase extension builder that contains some 1:1 and 1:n relations. It automatically set the field types to 'inline' and displayed a nice IRRE UI in the backend.
But by default, there is no way to select an existing record, just create new ones.
I found various explanations on how to achieve this with 'foreign_selector', but all of them very sketchy. The feature itself should be working, see https://forge.typo3.org/issues/43239
Can someone walk me through this or point to a working example in the TER? I could create a step-by-step tutorial from the example, once I get it to work.
PS The field's TCA config as generated by extension_builder:
'myfield' => array(
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:myextension/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xlf:tx_myextension_domain_model_myitem.myfield',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'inline',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_myextension_domain_model_myfield',
'foreign_field' => 'myitem',
'maxitems' => 9999,
'appearance' => array(
'collapseAll' => 0,
'levelLinksPosition' => 'top',
'showSynchronizationLink' => 1,
'showPossibleLocalizationRecords' => 1,
'showAllLocalizationLink' => 1
),
),
),
The main problem is that IRRE relations of type 1:n work like this: A child record holds the uid of its parent. So your table tx_myext_domain_model_city holds the UID of your (imaginary) tx_myext_domain_model_address.
Therefore with the default configuration you will not be able to select a city multiple times as it can only have exactly one parent.
So you will need to use a relation table for this field. This table needs to contain a uid field for both the address (uid_address) and the city (uid_city):
CREATE TABLE tx_irreforeignselectordemo_address_city_mm (
uid int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
pid int(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
uid_address int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
uid_city int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
sorting int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (uid),
KEY parent (pid)
);
And it needs to have a TCA configuration for these fields (while the table itself can be hidden):
return array(
'ctrl' => array(
'title' => 'Relation table',
'hideTable' => TRUE,
'sortby' => 'sorting',
),
'columns' => array(
'uid_address' => Array(
'label' => 'Address',
'config' => Array(
'type' => 'select',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_irreforeignselectordemo_domain_model_address',
'size' => 1,
'minitems' => 0,
'maxitems' => 1,
),
),
'uid_city' => Array(
'label' => 'City',
'config' => Array(
'type' => 'select',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_irreforeignselectordemo_domain_model_city',
'foreign_table_where' => ' AND sys_language_uid IN (0,-1)',
'size' => 1,
'minitems' => 0,
'maxitems' => 1,
),
),
),
'types' => array(
'0' => array('showitem' => 'uid_address,uid_city')
),
'palettes' => array()
);
You can then configure the TCA of your address to make it an IRRE field:
'type' => 'inline',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_yourext_address_city_mm',
'foreign_field' => 'uid_address',
'foreign_label' => 'uid_city',
'foreign_selector' => 'uid_city',
'foreign_unique' => 'uid_city',
'foreign_sortby' => 'sorting',
Note that foreign_unique tells TYPO3 that a city can only selected once.
And you need to define the relation from the other side (from your city TCA):
'addresses' => array(
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => 'Addresses',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'inline',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_irreforeignselectordemo_address_city_mm',
'foreign_field' => 'uid_city',
'foreign_label' => 'uid_address',
),
),
Once your configuration is complete, you will be able to use this in the Backend.
Since this is a non-standard MM relation, Extbase will not be able to deal with it by default. But we can compare this to the sys_file_reference table that was introduced in TYPO3 6. So we build an Extbase model for the CityRelation with the properties "address" and "city" and map this model to our mm table:
config.tx_extbase.persistence.classes {
Visol\Irreforeignselectordemo\Domain\Model\CityRelation {
mapping {
tableName = tx_irreforeignselectordemo_address_city_mm
columns {
uid_address.mapOnProperty = address
uid_city.mapOnProperty = city
}
}
}
}
Now in our address model, we define the city (or cities - of you allow more than one choice) as ObjectStorage of type CityRelation:
/**
* Cities
*
* #var \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\Visol\Irreforeignselectordemo\Domain\Model\CityRelation>
*/
protected $cities = NULL;
We now have a property "cities" that contains the references to all selected cities. You can iterate through them and use them:
<f:for each="{address.cities}" as="cityRelation">
<li>{cityRelation.city.name}</li>
</f:for>
Since I couldn't find an all-in-one demo for this and was interested in the topic, I created a demo extension that does what I just described - based on the Core and two extensions that deal with the topic: https://github.com/lorenzulrich/irreforeignselectordemo
The solution is an m:n approach anyway (because 1:n wouldn't work for the reasons stated above) so I decided to use "cities" instead of "city". While this might not make sense for selecting a city (as suggested by your post), it might make sense for other opportunities. Feel free to replace "cities" by "city" and set maxItems in the inline configuration to one - then you have kind of an 1:n.
