I'm configuring a new website with TYPO3 v. 9.5.
I would like to configure TCA settings to make it possible to force editors to fill fields in content elements like media or news.
In former times I was able to put this settings into a file typo3conf/extTables.php.
In my investigations I found, that I have to put configurations into a directory Configuration/TCA/Overrides of an extension.
I tested it with the extension tx_news like this:
I put this code in a file called test.php as a test and example.
This code forces the editor to always enter an archive date.
This works for me, but after an extension update, this code might be lost and I cannot configure the fields of core extensions for example to force an editor to always enter a title of a content element.
My question is, how can I store this configurations update save within the configuration environment?
Thank you in advance,
Ralf
Depending on your modifications you need to consider some aspects:
always use a filename according to the table your modifications belong.
so for the news records it should be: Configuration/TCA/Overrides/tx_news_domain_model_news.php
make sure your modifications are loaded after the first initial configuration: make a dependency to the original extension.

I'm using Typo3 8.7.24 and want to create an extension which creates news. I managed to create news records in the storage folder but i also want to make them translatable like in the attached screenshot. What do I have to do to enable it?
You probably forgot to translate the storage folder. You need to create a record of type "Alternative Page Language" there.
To do so, use the list module and add the record there.
I have created a TYPO3 template extension using the following method:
1.1 via Extension Manager
Open the module "Extension" in the TYPO3 Backend and search for the mask Extension.
Click on the configure icon at the end of the row.
Now you should be able to change the settings.
Changes are stored in typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php.
Facing the following problems:
1.We created the folder/extension as mentioned. While installing this extension we have to change Mask back-end configuration. This is not working.
2.Page tree contents are not properly imported i.e. all page contents are missing.
Please let me know if you need further details.
We have a working configuration where we stored the full mask-configuration as part of our site-extension.
As designed you need to configure mask before you start to define any CEs, so that all CE definitions are stored in the correct folders.
For the rendering you also need to include the static template of ext:mask.
Our configuration is:
This configuration is stored in typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php as there goes every configuration done in the extension manager.
I am quite new in typo3. I read somewhere
You should never edit the original templates of an extension as those changes will vanish if you upgrade the extension
How to create my own custom template based on bootstrap_package extension? I would like to override some files in parital/layout. It would be great if someone can post like/tutorial.
A folder structure and a simple custom typoscript that implement bootstrap_package for my custom temple would be great help.
The bootstrap package developers already added something for this. It is possible to set different locations, where templates are stored. It also uses a fallback solution, that means if a template is not found, it will fetch the original one from the extension.
Create a directory in the fileadmin directory, for example fileadmin/templates/BootstrapPackage. Inside this directory, create the directories "Templates", "Layouts" and "Partials".
In TYPO3 backend, go to the constant editor of the root page and select everything like the screenshot says:
Set the fields "Layout/Partial/Template Root Path" to your new created directorys (fileadmin/templates/BoostrapPackage/Layouts|Partials|Templates). Save and clear the cache.
Now you can create new templates. If you place an exacly named file like it is named in bootstrap_package/Resources/Private/(Layouts/Partials/Templates)/Page/ , TYPO3 will use the new template instead.
I am using Magento 1.7.1 and find that magento has automatically added ugly urls like www.afd.com/catalog/product/view/id/2728/name.html.
When I go into catalog > URL Rewrite, I see the target paths for all my products listed in the above totally unfriendly way with id numbers displaying.
How do I fix this en masse?
Thanks.

Try to do it by using a .csv file. You can create a php file which will run outside your project and do the expected changes via a csv file. Also hopes this will help to grab an idea. http://www.solvingmagento.com/magento-url-rewrites/
Refresh all indexes in magento, here is instrucion http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/magento/102-customizing-magento/how-to-reindex-your-magento-website, then flush all cache. Then magento should use Url Rewrites. If doesn't work make sure that you heve proper settings in
System->Configuration->Web->Search Engine Optimization
I need to add some text to this file [template/payment/form/purchaseorder.phtml], for a particular store within clients' magento site. When I make a change to the purchaseorder.phtml file, it changes the text on all the stores. So I need to somehow customize this for one store in particular.
I have read comments on several sites, some mention changing the local.xml, change the config.xml, make changes in admin panel, but this such a small change, I don't want to disrupt anything by going overboard.
I need to extend the functionality on the backend so this change can be made for a particular store or stores. the sites has five stores built into the one install and for now I need to make the above change to just one store.
I think I need to somehow add a PO field Heading and an "Additional Text" option to the Purchase order section in image two. is this correct, if so how do I do this?
Could someone point me in the right direction to making this type of change please.
Note: I can't do the create directory structure, copy files, change needed files option
This is magento 1.7
Copy purchaseorder.phtml file from base/default directory then paste it in your current template. Now you can alter content of it purchaseorder.phtml in your current directory, it wont affect the base file.Like below,
Copy from
app/design/frontend/base/default/template/payment/form/purchaseorder.phtml
Paste to
app/design/frontend/base/current_theme/template/payment/form/purchaseorder.phtml
When you override a section, the folder structure should resemble the default template folder structure like current_theme/template/form/ payment/purchaseorder.phtml .
sorry for bad english.
