How link to URL of single news article via CONTENT object - typo3

Question

I am using the typoscript below to display news content via a CONTENT object. Everything is working great except the link doesn't go to the page of the article. Is there a way to tell the typolink that this is a news article and that it should use the cached CoolURI link for it?
Also, the additionalParameter I'm trying to append to the querystring isn't appearing.
temp.MMtest = COA
temp.MMtest {
10 = CONTENT
10.table = tt_news
#10.select.pidInList = 170 # Uid of the sysfolder where News records are stored
10.select.pidInList = 18
10.select.recursive = 10
#10.select.where = uid=10 # Uid of an existing News record
10.select.andWhere = deleted=0 AND hidden=0
10.renderObj = COA
10.renderObj {
10 = TEXT
10.field = title
10.wrap = Title: |<br>
10.typolink.parameter.field=uid
typolink.parameter.dataWrap=|
#typolink.additionalParams.insertData=1
typolink.additionalParams.data=&my_extra_param=something
#if.isTrue.field=header
}
10.renderObj.20=IMAGE
10.renderObj.20{
wrap=|
# show it only if inserted
stdWrap.if.isTrue.field=image
stdWrap.typolink.parameter.field=uid
file.import=uploads/pics/
file.import.field=image
file.width=100
file.height=100
}
}

I do not know, which parameters you need, so in short:
10.typolink {
# you need a page to link too
parameter = PAGE_ID_OF_SINGLE_VIEW
# create an cacheable link, that does not depend on cooluri or realurl.
useCacheHash = 1
# add the additional params
additionalParams.wrap = &tx_ttnews[uid]=|
# data expects special commands
# "&my_extra_param=something" cannot work on .data
additionalParams.data = field:uid
}
If you need more then one additionalParams i would do it this way:
10.typolink {
parameter = PAGE_ID_OF_SINGLE_VIEW
useCacheHash = 1
# Create an Content Object Array
# so you can separat the different entries
# the cObject will return &tx_ttnews[uid]=123&what[ever]=hardcodedvalue
# additionalParams is filled with that string and added to the url
additionalParams.cObject = COA
additionalParams.cObject {
10 = TEXT
10.wrap = &tx_ttnews[uid]=|
10.field = uid
20 = TEXT
20.wrap = &what[ever]=|
20.value = hardcodedvalue
}
}
You do not need
10.select.andWhere = deleted=0 AND hidden=0
this is added automatically by the CONTENT Object.
Read more about typolink about COA and about stdWrap and its property data and finally have a look at getText.
