In TYPO3 Neos, how can I build a menu containing the list of sites available? If I use entryLevel = 0, I get the list of pages under the current site.
not with the normal "Menu" so much I can say. It was intended to be used inside a site. I have no obvious solution for you right now, but will check back. You probably could create a little plugin fetching the site and domain records from their repositories and creating a menu from that.

I'm in trouble to build a multilevel drodown menu in a site made with typo3.
I created the pages and organized them in their hierarchy, but the second level of the dropdown menu doesn't appear.
I searched but just find TypoScript related topics, but I'm in an specific environment that doesn't allow me to Code with TypoScript.
I wonder if there is any configuration I haven't seen.
Can anyopne help me?
If you are not allowed to use typoscript at all you are only an editor. And it's not the job of an editor to build menus. Go to your admin/integrator and give him the job to display multiple levels.
If you have the possibility to create template records, but the whole configuration is done in a site-extension (where you have no access), you still can create/ enhance the menu and give that typoscript to the developers.
There are contentelements to build menus, but for the page main-menu I never would use them.
A better solution is the usage of menu viewhelpers in the page templates/ partials/ layouts.
My preferred way: build the menu in typoscript in a fluid-variable and use it in the fluid-templates.
I don't know how your site gets it menu. From your description I assume that the menu misses either the configuration for deeper level at all. Or it missses expAll = 1 so you only see pages around your rootline.
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.
Many visitors visiting our website by a link to content in a different language from their mother tongue. If they click on the language switcher, they will be redirected to the home link of the current menu. That means they have to navigate to the content again.
Is there a Plugin available that solve this problem?
The use should change the language and see the english version of the specific content.
That should not be the case, if you have set up bi/multi language in the right way.
Have you associated the articles to each others as well as the menu entrys?
You need to have exact copies of your menu.
Are you talking about "Content Pages" that have no menu entry? If so, try to create a menu which is not visible for the user, but use it to associate content.
You find the Association Tab in the Menu Entry Edit
The Falang component allows you to manage all your content translations, even the content of all your components/modules, on your web site.
Falang doesn't use the default language system of Joomla 2.5 and 3.3. You don't have to specify a language for each content article or menu item (which results in a huge amount of duplication). You don't need to create few menu copies, few articles/categories copies for different languages.
Here is described how to use it
Is it possible to manage multiple sites in Neos with shared content and templates? I tried to do it under the directory sites but I am not sure yet where to put it correctly. Also I was thinking about using the language dropdown maybe? What do you think?
Yes, Neos can manage multiple sites with shared content and templates. To create a new site you might want to create a new site package using the Sites Management administration module.
You then have to assign different domains to your sites to have them accessible with the Neos backend, they will show up under Content in the menu.
From within one site package you can refer to templates with resource://My.First.Site/Private/Templates/NodeTypes/Test.html and you can include TypoScript from another site using something like include: resource://My.First.Site/Private/TypoScript/NodeTypes/*.
With Flow Query you can as well access content of another site by using an absolute path to nodes:
items = ${q(site).find('/sites/myfirstsite/some-node')
Note though that all configuration in NodeTypes.yaml as well as Settings.yaml is global and will be combined from all active sites.
I have a Joomla site I am developing that centers around designer handbags of a particular label
(not my site, it's a client's). It is not an ecommerce site, more of a social site.
What I am looking to do is present the user with a list of handbag styles and patterns so that
they can mark which items they have and which items they need.
Then two sections of content would be generated - one listing what they have and one listing what
they need.
I would also need to be able to include a direct menu link to that page.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Probably the best way to do that would be to extend either community builder or JomSocial. Both have the ability to have custom user profiles which would go a long way to creating what you are looking for. You may even be able to do everything you want within the basic structure of one of those extensions.
