How to hide backend layout in folders - typo3

In pages of type folder nobody want to add content. It's not meaningful and you get the warning "Go to list module" if you are in page module.
How can I disable the display of "Normal" (name of default column) and the button [+ Content]? It's not useful and confusing for editors.
I tried something with backend layouts but with no success.

Wondering, what you have tried with backend layouts so far.
The following is working since versions (including v10):
mod.web_layout.BackendLayouts {
exampleKey {
title = Example
icon = EXT:example_extension/Resources/Public/Images/BackendLayouts/default.gif
config {
backend_layout {
colCount = 0
rowCount = 0
rows {
}
}
}
}
}

Typo3 Content Elements missing in wizard

I have some content elements in a site package which I want to show up in the content element wizard as explained here:
https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/ContentElements/ContentElementsWizard.html
Basically I have done the same as shown in the section "Create a new tab"
Configuration\TsConfig\Page\ContentElement\All.tsconfig is looking like this:
mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.mci.header = MCI
mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.mci {
elements {
mci_home_banner {
iconIdentifier = home-banner
title = Home-Banner
description = Banner der Startseite
tt_content_defValues.CType = mci_home_banner
}
mci_home_banner_element {
iconIdentifier = home-banner-element
title = Home Banner Element
description = Element im Starseitenbanner
tt_content_defValues.CType = mci_home_banner_element
}
}
show := addToList(mci_home_banner, mci_home_banner_element)
}
I reduced the code to just 2 elements. They are not shown at all, but are available over the dropdown, so I can switch to one of them after choosing another element.
This didn't work when created in 9.5 and still does not work after switching to version 11.5.10
What am I missing?
#user414873 Did you try to add your custom elements to the "common" tab instead of your new one "mci"?
And did you try to use an existing icon identifier (e.g. "content-image" or an other one - see https://typo3.github.io/TYPO3.Icons/)? Just to make sure that there is no problem with your custom icons that prevents the elements from being displayed.
Does this minimal example work for you:
mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.common {
elements {
mci_home_banner {
iconIdentifier = content-image
title = Home-Banner
description = Banner der Startseite
tt_content_defValues.CType = mci_home_banner
}
}
show := addToList(mci_home_banner)
}
And I would doubt this:
I guess otherwise the content elements wouldn't be available at all.
I suggest you check it's correctly included by using the "Info" module in your TYPO3 main menu. Then select the page where the content element should be included and switch the dropdown on top of the content area to "View TSconfig fields content". Now you can search for "wizards" and check if your element is included.

Add templateLayout option to tx_news sepecific to view type?

Using PageTSConfig I want to add some template options to the tx_news plugin.
How do I make it so that List template options are only shown when list view is active, and the same for Detail template options?
I thought it would be something like this:
tx_news.templateLayouts {
types {
list {
1 = Alt List
}
detail {
2 = Alt Detail
}
}
}
By PageTS it's only possible to handle different list templates, the code must look like this:
tx_news.templateLayouts {
1 = A custom layout
99 = LLL:fileadmin/somelocallang/locallang.xlf:someTranslation
}
For different detail views you need to use TypoScript settings options.
All examples you can see here:
https://docs.typo3.org/p/georgringer/news/main/en-us/Tutorials/Templates/TemplateSelector/Index.html

Define TYPO3 content element layouts for a specific list_type

In TYPO3 you can define custom Layouts to show up exclusively at
Appearance > Content Element Layout > Layout
for a specific CType like e.g. “gridelements_pi1”. How can i do this for specific list_type (where CType is “list”)?
code example:
TCEFORM {
tt_content {
layout {
addItems {
# layout items for all
}
types {
# CType "gridelements_pi1"
gridelements_pi1 {
addItems {
# layout items only for "gridelements"
}
}
list {
# is it possible to have
# layout items only for list_type "XYZ" ?
}
}
}
}
}
AFAIK it is not possible to limit this to a specific list_type.
CType = End of story (like in your example)
Possible solution: if this is your own extension, you can add your own unique CType instead of just calling it "list".
tt_content_defValues {
CType = your_own_ctype
list_type = extname_pluginname
}
As Mikel already said: there are no more options in the typoscript structure to configure special plugins.
But it might be possible to use conditions which are possible in TSconfig to identify the plugin type in the current context.
I remember an installation where it was used, but I don't remember the exact configuration and whether this still works in newer TYPO3 versions. So unfortunately I have no working example or documentation for this case.
This works
TCEFORM{
tt_content{
layout {
types {
div {
addItems {
30 = Grey
}
}
}
}
}

TYPO3 Custom Menu Element

I am trying to create a custom menu element by using this in the Page TSConfig:
TCEFORM.tt_content {
menu_type.addItems.101 = My Menu
}
And this in Setup:
temp.my_menu = HMENU
temp.my_menu {
special = list
special.value.field = pages
1 = TMENU
1 {
wrap = <ul> | </ul>
NO = 1
NO.wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
}
}
tt_content.menu.20.101 < temp.my_menu
But I get 'Oops, an error occurred!' where the menu should be.
It will render fine if I remove the Fluid includes in the template but then all the other content elements give errors.
Is there any way to have a typoscript menu element at the same time as fluid styled content?
Or if I really have to, how do I add a custom fluid menu template?
You need to move the line with the copy operation down to the bottom, otherwise the configuration is not copied, because it is not there yet.
The exception happens, because there is no rendering definition for the menu (because you never copied the configuration).
To see the real error instead of the exception, switch to the development preset in the install tool oder add the following line to your TS setup:
config.contentObjectExceptionHandler = 0
I noticed this :
TCEFORM.tt_content {
menu_type.addItems.101 = My Menu
}
as far as I know should be this :
TCEFORM.tt_content.menu_type {
types {
menu{
addItems {
101 = My Menu
}
}
}
}
I had to 'tweak' the special menus (typo3 7.6) and this worked:
Add special menu and add class="active" in TYPO3

Create a new link stye in Typo3?

Is there a way to add a new style to the Insert Link dialog in Typo3?
Currently they are "internal-link", "internal-link-new-window", or no style.
I have tried putting various things in the Page tsconfig with no results at all...
I found this on another site which looks like it does what I want but I can't get it to do anything:
RTE.classesAnchor {
tollerLink1 {
class = button
type = page
titleText = Button
}
}
RTE.default {
classesAnchor:=addToList(button)
}
In your TsConfig (Home Page Properties - Resources - Page TSConfig)
RTE.default.buttons {
link.properties.class.allowedClasses := addToList(internal-link-new-window)
}
