TYPO3 9.5 Tutorial needed - typo3

It might be a bit too general, but I need a reasonable tutorial on TYPO3 9.5
I just finished going through the tutorials on TYPO3 site, but to my frustration they are all but useless when it comes to simplest of questions.
For example:
After creating a template, how do I assign content to the correct parts of the page?
And a dozen or so more of the ilk.
Some reasonable introduction to extensions in TYPO3 would be nice as well.
Honestly if it were not for the customer, I could of done 3 or four similar sites in the time it takes to work how TYPO3 works :-(

I had my start with TYPO3 using Wolgang Wagners video tutorials. It costs 77 Euros, is in German language and only available for version 7 and 8. Most of it should still be applicable to version 9.

As per FrankHsnblg suggestion feel free to check it out.
The guy Frank advised has a nice tutorial on his Youtube channel that should get most of the people started.
I could understand it even with some rather basic German knowledge

If you know German, I suggest to you these tutorials.

Even tho Daniel is using version 7.6, you will learn a lot.
Have fun :)

How to migrate from TinyMCE 4 to TinyMCE 5 - Prestashop

A day ago my prestashop website, in the comment box of the blog started to display the following message:
And entering the post that explains how to migrate the version of TinyMCE , I do not understand very well how to perform these steps in my prestashop.
How can I update this?a
if you are using a third-party module to make your blog it might be is including its own version of TinyMCE. You should try to dig in its code to understand that.
If this is not the case, the blog uses TinyMCE which is normally included in Prestashop core.
On said that, this second case is likely to be the one. Update the e-commerce unlikely will solve your problem. I honestly don't remember in which version they are with TinyMCE but doing an upgrade like that might break back-office editor forms so I don't think they are keen on that at the moment. They are doing a major rollover to Symfony, I am pretty sure this is their priority right now. As said in one comment, Prestashop's dev team has to solve the issue on their side.

TYPO3 feedback / guestbook

Hello to all TYPO3 enthusiasts,
I am asking myself since about 2 weeks now, how to make a feedback/guestbook page with TYPO3.
What I want:
I have a page, where visitors can leave a feedback.
When they send a feedback, it shall not be showed immediately. It shall be stored in a database, with a flag "allowed: yes/no". If the administrator allows the visitors feedback, it shall appear on the page.
The feedbacks, that haven't yet been allowed, shall be displayed in the backend, where they can be enabled.
My problem
I don't even know, if this is realizable? If it is, what is the next step to make this working? Do i have to create my own extension for that?
Would be very nice, if someone can answer me my question and maybe give me some advices.
Have a look at https://bitbucket.org/ArminVieweg/pw_comments/overview
The current master version should be capable of doing this for TYPO3 7.6
Here is a third one :-)
https://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/mmc_guestbook
I tested that and it worked for me, I think it should also work on 7.6 so you can just ignore the requirements.
Since I needed some changes I rewrote most of the code and my version is working on 7.6. Write a comment if you want me version.
Download and install extension tt_guest from TYPO3 extensions repository

This would offer the funktionality you described

Zend Framework Scaffolding Administration Panel

Is there any crud scaffolding module/framework (like ATK framework) that can be integrated into a Zend Framework based website?
If not... what Zend Framework CMS would you consider? I've googled a lot but didn't find much:
Centurion
Pimcore
TomatoCMS
From documentation Centurion looked easy to learn... what's your opinion?
Thanks.
Although scaffolding is not is main propose, ZFDatagrid http://code.google.com/p/zfdatagrid has the ability to do that (disclosure: I'm the project owner ).
You can check some demos here:
Basic listing
Simple CRUD operations
Bulk operations
Also check the Project page
regards,
Here is the closest solution to my problem: ZFCore opensource CMF based on Zend Framework
http://code.google.com/p/zfcore/
I spent the last 48h reviewing a few opensource CMF based on Zend Framework: during my googling Centurion and Digitalus was spotting everywhere but it looks like are not mantained anymore and anyway even if they look professional and referenced... it was a pain getting them up and running (and Centurion appeared to hang sometimes).
I excluded TomatoCMS, PimCore and Magento becouse I wanted a medium size system completely customizable.
ZFCore is an open source CMF mantained by Anton Shevchuk and other 17 commiters.
It looks very nice and fairly easy to understand besides all the documentation is russian (thanks chrome for translating).
If anyone has a valid alternative, please tell me.
Thanks.
Difficult to have something similar to ATK with an MVC framework.
If you use Zend_Db and ZF >1.11 you might find this useful http://github.com/elvisciotti/zf1-crud

what cms that can support more than one language?

One of my clients asked me to integrate an open source CMS in her website.The challenge I have right now is that she wants the website to be bilingual. is there any cms that implements this feature? The content on each page should be displayed either in english or french and no automation translation(like google's or babel fish). only static content should be held in language configuration files.
Thanks for any help or idea.
N2CMS can do that. It supports multi-sites on one installation, multi-language, templating, MVC. And it is a very developer-friendly, developed in C#.
http://n2cms.com
http://n2cms.codeplex.com/
Drupal, besides being considered the best php-based open source CMS, has multilingual support
"Internationalization: Build Multilingual Sites"
http://drupal.org/node/133977
Umbraco does this, is FOSS and based on .NET.
http://umbraco.org/
go for joomla it support multi lingual , use joom fish component
According to one of its FAQ's, Plone, running the LinguaPlone add-on can do this, if I understand your question correctly.
MODXCMS.com does enable you to use lots of different languages on the same site!
They call it YAMS - Yet Another Multilingual Solution ---
about YAMS on the MODX Forums
I say go with MODx CMS coupled with YAMS. Choose the Evolution release, not the Revolution. I just installed the YAMS and it's working like a charm.
The learning curve maybe a bit steep but it's worth every hour I spent learning it.
Are you looking for a translation memory/CMS or a CMS that integrates with a TM?
How many languages are you looking to support?
Any of the complicated ones? (HAT, for example)

mojoPortal OR Umbraco?

I have been look around for Free/Open Source ASP.NET CMS / Portal systems for a while now, and have seived it down to two different ones.
Umbraco - http://umbraco.org
mojoPortal - http://www.mojoportal.com
Both look excellent and have different appealing features, but I am looking for people who have used both and which one you went with and why??
I actually went for Umbraco in the end and would never look back, its incredibly easy to install and use
To install you can use the web platform installer to install it and the AMAZING amount of free projects you can EASILY install with a couple of clicks make it by far the best CMS out there
http://our.umbraco.org/projects
If you are unsure where to start have a read of this
http://www.blogfodder.co.uk/post/A-Complete-Newbies-Guide-To-Umbraco-CMS.aspx
I tried Umbraco and it is not for the timid. I feel I'm a fairly technical person, Sr. Web Developer... and after several hours I gave up.
MojoPortal just works.
It has its flaws, but the simple fact that it just works means it wins.
I used Kentico, DNN, Sitecore, Joomla, CMS Made Simple (Yes admittedly not mojoPortal). Umbraco is by far the most powerful if you are after a highly customised and highly specified solution. Linq2Umbraco just seals the deal.
However, if you are after idiot proof CMS with everything built in, and your biggest concern is to look for check boxes to enable forum/blogs/whatever other joke modules/bells and whistles/etc. Umbraco isn't for you. IMO Kentico/DNN are the ones.
Edit - And 3 years later, I've used SharePoint, epiServer, SiteFinity as well.
Umbraco still wins hands down.
mojoPortal seems easier to use to me and it works even with javascript disabled like using noscript browser plugin. Seems more care of accessibility has been taken using progressive enhancement javascript techniques whereas you can't manage your site at all with javascript disabled using Umbraco.
I haven't tried mojoPortal, but I love Umbraco.
Things I like:
Clean code
Uses XSLT, python, or .NET to extend
Awesome community support
Tutorial videos for easy learning
Admin area is extensible
Good plug-in projects
But really its because I can use it for both small and large projects easily.
