Is it possible to configure the wizard in TCA so that I can create a new particular plugin? - typo3

How can I create a custom wizard in TCA so that, I can click on add button to create a particluar specific plugin on a page? my TYPO3 Version is 7.6.
click on the image. There is a add button

You can make a custom wizard on your own or use an existing one. Here you can find examples of existing ones and an example to create a custom one: https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/TCAReference/7.6/AdditionalFeatures/WizardsConfiguration/Index.html#user-defined-wizard-processing-with-php-function

Note this code area has been rewritten with core v8 - much more powerful 'wizards' are possible, called 'node expansion' and they come with a better API. For details see https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/CoreApiReference/ApiOverview/FormEngine/Rendering/Index.html#node-expansion and the according sections from TCA Reference for details.

How to change backend layout in Typo3 7.2?

I am new to typo3, i am trying to create a new backend layout for my home page.I need add few custom sections to edit contents.I am not able to find option to do so.
TYPO3 7.2 is out of support and has know security issues. Please update to 7.3 at least.
You can create backend layout records in any folder in the page tree. To select those backend layouts, you have to add this folder as the general record storage in the page properties of the page where you want to use your backend layout.
I suggest you take a look into the Getting started tutorial which will walk you through your first steps.
http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/GettingStartedTutorial/
In case you use a distribution, it might be that the backend layout is added in another way, e.g. via TSconfig or directly using PHP. Please consult the according documentation of the distribution in this case.
Figured out myself.
Go to List in Web, then click on add new + icon, then select Backend Layout under System Records.

How to add Typo3 Extensions to a page?

I googled for quite some time now and i cannot find a solution for such an easy beginner-problem.
I used the Typo3 Extension Builder to build a test-extension in Extbase. Now i want to use this and include it into one of my pages in the page tree structure to actually see if it works. When browsing the folder structure i can clearly see that the Domain model, the Controllers and all the views have properly been generated. But... How can i tell my page to include it and execute it?
I tried things like including the auto generated typescript into the templates of the pages but nothing works.
Thanks!
In Extension Builder make sure that you added "Frontend plugin" on the left pane. If you'll do it properly you will be able to add this plugin via CE "General Plugin" and then via field "Select plugin"
Sounds like you struggle on a more general level here.
In order to get the output of your Extension in the Frontend you have to assure the following steps:
Set up general Configuration, so that you can see the output of standard content elements in the frontend.
Install your extension and include its TypoScript.
Make sure you have a Plugin configured in your ext_localconf.php and registered in your ext_tables.php.
In the backend, create a new content element and choose "plugin" as its type.
Choose your registered plugin and save.
You should now see output of your extension in the frontend.

Jira plugin development - Is it possible to customize the 'Add project' page from a plugin?

I am developing a JIRA plugin and I'm trying to add a custom field to the Add project page. As far as I know, a custom field can be added only for an issue. Is it possible to add a custom field (a text field or a select list) at a project level?
I have found an plugin, which is able to add metadata on Project level.
Please take a glimpse at this link
Short answer: doable but not particularly easily
The way you do this is to write a WebWork plugin that changes the Java class that handles that webpage. The process is that the actions.xml file contains the AddProjects.jspa, e.g.
<action name="project.AddProject" alias="AddProject" roles-required="admin">
<view name="error">/secure/admin/views/addproject.jsp</view>
<view name="input">/secure/admin/views/addproject.jsp</view>
</action>
which tells you that the class name is AddProject, which you can extend to handle the user setting a value in this new field. Then you also need to decide how you're going to store values for each project (more info in the Practical JIRA Plugins or JIRA Development Cookbook books). The hardest part here is that the template files are .jsp files which you can't change directly with a plugin. What I usually do is write a ServletFilter to inject JavaScript to change the AddProjects page that way.
There is no elegant way, but you possibly can use Custom Project Properties for JIRA plugin.
This plugin allows to:
define list of custom fields for projects
define custom fields per project
fill custom fields on project administration page

How to apply own template on Joomla? [duplicate]

Joomla is pretty good CMS but, is there any way to create custom template which will be joomla supportable ?
If I understand your question you want to convert an existing template that isn't even a Joomla template. If that is the case I found it very hard to do, of course depending on where the template was coming from. I ended up taking a template for Joomla 1.5 and starting from that. (Although the ja_Purity is a messy one when it comes to the CSS, looking back I would should have started with another one....)
Yes, you can do it. Copy default template which comes with Joomla and customize it, and you can install it now.
Refer : http://docs.joomla.org/Joomla!_1.5_Template_Tutorials_Project
Follow the SiteGround tutorial.
1st result for Google: joomla change template.
If you mean a page-specific template, then this is answered here: http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_assign_a_template_to_a_specific_page%3F
It describes the following steps:
In Joomla! there is a default
template, but you can assign other
templates to specific "pages" that are
defined by menu links.
To assign a template to a page, you
must first make sure that there is a
direct menu link to the page.
Go to Extensions>>Template Manager
Select the Template and click the edit icon (or click the template name)
In the left column, change "None" to "Select from List."
Select the links you want to apply the template to.
Save
Note that you cannot assign the
default template to individual pages.
