How can I insert the current page title automatically into a TYPO3 template? - typo3

actually the title is the whole question.
I just want to modify the template so that the current page title is automatically shown (i'm working with html templates so I just need the bit of typoscript to get the page title out of the database)
I hope that's possible

It is. It's pretty simple to do. I'll assume you're using TemplaVoilà, because if you're not, you should be :-D
Start off by putting some HTML in your template with a dummy page title. Give it an ID attribute so it's easy to map. Like:
<h1 id="page-title">Page Title Here</h1>
Next, go into TemplaVoilà and map that <h1> element to the content type "TypoScript Object Path". When it prompts you for the object path, you can put in anything you want -- convention is that dynamic content is added in the "lib" namespace, so let's call it lib.pagetitle. When it asks you if you want to map this to "INNER" or "OUTER", choose "INNER" -- that will mean you're just mapping the space BETWEEN the <h1>...</h1> tags. ("OUTER" means you're replacing the whole element, including the tags, which we don't want here because we want this to stay an H1.) Save your template mapping.
Now go into your site's TypoScript template. Here you're going to insert the logic that fills in that space we just mapped with actual content. To insert the page title is a matter of a couple of lines of TypoScript:
lib.pagetitle = TEXT
lib.pagetitle.data = page : title
What this says is "take the space in the template that I mapped to lib.pagetitle. Create a content object in that space of type TEXT. Then fill that content object with the title of the page."
Save your TypoScript template. Now you're done!
This probably sounds complicated at first glance, and it is, but the nice thing about this system is that it's amazingly flexible. Inserting text dynamically is just the beginning. The TypoScript Reference (a.k.a. the "TSRef") has all the details -- look up "getText" to get a flavor, that's the function that makes the "page : title" call in your TypoScript template drop in the page title.
TSRef is your friend. I keep a printed copy of it at my desk -- if you want to make TYPO3 sing, it is your songbook.

I prefer the vhs solution:
{v:page.info(field:'title')}
https://fluidtypo3.org/viewhelpers/vhs/master/Page/InfoViewHelper.html

lib.pagetitle = RECORDS
lib.pagetitle {
source.data = page:uid
tables = pages
conf.pages = TEXT
conf.pages.field = nav_title
}
To get current page title:
lib.pagetitle = TEXT
lib.pagetitle.field=title
For meta data :
Its very important to place meta after header tag when we are gone through mobile compatible website
In order to prevent quirks mode in IE9 I need to add this lines at the very top of every HTML page:
You can write the whole header by yourself, by adding disableAllHeaderCode = 1 to your typoscript or you can hack it by adding your meta tag directly to the head tag:
page.headTag = <head><meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
Place this at your typoscript
meta.X-UA-Compatible = IE=edge,chrome=1
httpEquivalent: (Since TYPO3 4.7) If set to 1, the http-equiv attribute is used in the meta tag instead of the “name” attribute. Default: 0.

If you want to use this in a fluid page template, you can also simple use:
{data.title}
to access the page title.

You can current page title by following typoscript:
lib.pagetitle = TEXT
lib.pagetitle.data = page : title
and then use this object to your page using typoscriptObjectPath like following way:
<f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath="lib.pagetitle"/>

If you want to use a fluid only solution, install the VHS extension and you can output the page title without using any TypoScript at all like this:
Tag Example:
<v:page.header.title title="NULL" whitespaceString="' '" setIndexedDocTitle="1">
<!-- tag content - may be ignored! -->
</v:page.header.title>
Inline Example:
{v:page.header.title(title: 'NULL', whitespaceString: '' '', setIndexedDocTitle: 1)}

lib.page_title = CONTENT
lib.page_title {
table = pages
select {
where = uid = 2
}
renderObj = COA
renderObj {
10 = TEXT
10 {
field = title
wrap = <h1 class="page_title">|</h1>
}
20 = TEXT
20 {
field = subtitle
stdWrap.required = 1
stdWrap.wrap = <h5>|</h5>
}
}
}
call the lib.page_title where want to render typoscript with this lines
<f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath='lib.page_title' />
I hope this helps !!!

The question is quite old but I still want to add something I never read here.
TYPO3 offers many things concerning the header, and it's right that it's also possible to render it completely individual. Nevertheless all the nice options of TYPO3 are more or less disabled by the individual solution.
So first the direct answer on the question:
The default page title can be overridden like this
config.pageTitle.stdWrap.override.cObject < lib.pagetitle
If several page types are defined and the title shall be set individually for each type, the configuration can be noted inside the page-definitions:
page = PAGE
page {
typeNum = 0
config.pageTitle.stdWrap.override.cObject < lib.pagetitle_1
...
}
anotherPage = PAGE
anotherPage {
typeNum = 1
config.pageTitle.stdWrap.override.cObject < lib.pagetitle_2
...
}
Below still a lib.pagetitle which makes a little bit more than only using title or subtitle - it uses news-title if the extension is used on a page:
lib.pagetitle = COA
lib.pagetitle {
10 = TEXT
10 {
// subtitle: used as field for title tag
value.field = subtitle // title
if.isFalse.data = GP:tx_news_pi1|news
}
20 = RECORDS
20 {
if.isTrue.data = GP:tx_news_pi1|news
dontCheckPid = 1
tables = tx_news_domain_model_news
source.data = GP:tx_news_pi1|news
source.intval = 1
conf.tx_news_domain_model_news = TEXT
conf.tx_news_domain_model_news {
field = title
htmlSpecialChars = 1
}
}
}
Now still some background why I think some individual header might not be the best solution:
TYPO3 usually adds several details to the header, that are useful and it's not required to combine those things individually new.
Scripts and stylesheets are organized and can be even by TypoScript compressed and merged. If some syntax is followed it even takes care that a library like jquery is only included once.
TYPO3 has many functions in TypoScript where everything can be defined related to the header and also it can be decided if scripts shall be perhaps never be included at all in the header but instead in the bottom of the page-source.
Metatags can be defined (and overridden by extensions or sub-templates)
Implementing this whole logic manually again in an own template in my opinion is not useful and I think headers should be only disabled for special page-types like AJAX or dynamic PDF-files. This is the primary reason that I consider that option as useful.
Her still the current link for the most recent documentation about the config-options in TypoScript (anchor pagetitle):

typo3 add content element to all pages that are direct child of a certain page using typoscript

I have defined a menu content element using typoscript:
lib.share = COA
lib.share {
wrap = <div class="shareLinkBlock">|</div>
1 = TEXT
1.data = page : title
...
I would like to add this menu to colPos 2 of every page, that is direct child of a certain page.
Is there any way to achieve that?
Thanks a lot!
A solution depends on the current realization of the page.
If you use only typoscript you can replace the colPos2 rendering with a COA where your typoscript is part one and the old rendering is a second part.
Using conditions can restrict the appearance to selected page trees.
In similar ways you can realize it with FLUID.
You can insert a fluid variable, filled with your typoscript in every page.
The restriction to special page trees can be realized with conditions in typoscript or in FLUID. Also you can use different page-layouts for pages with and without this menu.
another solution would be an additional backend column which gets inherited and where you fill in your menu for those pages where the menu starts being visible. (conditions like above)
EDIT:
if you want to enhance a given FLUID variable, defined in typoscript you can word with a COA:
:
10 = FLUIDTEMPLATE
10 {
:
variables {
enhancedColumn = COA
enhancedColumn {
10 = ..old definition ...
}
}
}
:
// make sure you use the correct conditions:
[PIDinRootline = 10]
...10.variables.20 < lib.footer
[global]

How to access data from FLUIDTEMPLATE file and render that content in our desired file?

I have my package from sitepackagebuilder (v9.5.14). I no good at Typoscript. I am using the optional menu navigation file MainBefore.html (my desired file) from bootstrap_package which I put in my stpkg extension because this file is globally available in the FE alongside main menu. I try to explain my doubt in the two following examples.
First one is clear to me. usually I do things like this, (My only known typoscript way to access and render things).
Example 1:
In typoscript
lib.stdContent = FLUIDTEMPLATE
lib.stdContent {
file = EXT:sitepackagebuilder/Resources/Private/Partials/Page/DropIn/Navigation/Data.html
variables {
mylabel = TEXT
mylabel.value = Label coming from TypoScript!
}
}
In Data.html
<h4>Hello TYPO3</h4>
<h3 hidden>{mylabel}</h3>
MainBefore.html
....
<div class="from-data-file"><f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath="lib.stdContent" /></div>
....
The above example will work.
Example 2:
But this following example is my doubt.
page.10 = FLUIDTEMPLATE
page.10.variables.userInfoForChat = COA_INT
page.10.variables.userInfoForChat {
10 = FLUIDTEMPLATE
10 {
file = EXT:company/Resources/Private/Partials/Page/DropIn/Navigation/Data.html
variables {
mylabel = TEXT
mylabel.value = Label coming from TypoScript!
}
}
}
How can I access variables in Data.html and render content in MainBefore.html like example 1? Correct me If I am wrong
Both files are in same location.
First: you are doing very complicated things. normaly stacking templates inside each other is not necessary. so the main question would be: What do you intend to do?
Then we can find a simple way to do it.
I try to identify your intention:
you have a main template (main = main for this example, otherwise it is just a small part of the general page rendering) where you want to have a variable, which is filled from another template, where some variable is inserted.
Some information is missing as these would not be necessary when all values are static like in your example.
There must be something non static as you use a uncached COA_INT and the name userInfoForChat hints to something user specific, which of course is not cachable.
My question is: why do you put a complete fluid templating in the variable, when it should be enough to have only some uncached values in it and stay with just one set of fluid template. (That set already could consists of template, layout and a lot of partials)

Use Powermail in Typo3 6.2.4

I'm using typo3 6.2.4 and powermail 2.0.16
I need to create a form who send a mail to me.
I created the form with the page and the fields. One is the name and one is the mail to test.
After, I created the content element with the plugin powermail and now, I need to display the form in the frontend. I have active the static "Main Template" and "Add basic CSS". I try this code but it's not working.
page = PAGE
page.10 = CONTENT
page.10.table = tt_content
page.10.select {
where = colPos = 0
orderBy = sorting
}
page.10.renderObj = COA
page.10.renderObj {
10 = TEXT
10.field = header
10.wrap = <div class="header">|</div>
20 = TEXT
20.field = bodytext
20.wrap = <div class="bodytext">|</div>
}
Can you help me?
The answer is here : Nothing appears in Typo3 with powermail (Frontend)
It seems that you are missing the proper typoscript to actually show the form on the page. The specified typoscript snippet is not enough to show the content elements on the page.
Inside your typoscript template include the css_styled_content static template and change the snippet to this:
# Default PAGE object:
page = PAGE
page.10 < styles.content.get
That should ensure proper showing on the frontend. This is basic as it is, if you want it to be better looking, or different templating you should take a look at templating with TYPO3 first.
Just thinking with you here, did you add this as a template in the typoscript template configuration? Like

Links at the start of content elements

TYPO3 adds these links at the start of almost every element:
<a id="c1427"></a>
where number is, I guess, UID of the element.
How TYPO3 render this link and is it possible to disable it for a specific FCE?
It depends on your TYPO3 Version. In 4.5 it is defined via:
tt_content.stdWrap.innerWrap.cObject.default.10.value = <div id="c{field:uid}"
If you use the TS-Objectbrowser, you should find it somewhere in tt_content.stdWrap.*
Depending on the rendering you are using, you could be able to add an if statement like:
tt_content.stdWrap.innerWrap.cObject.default.10 {
# check the uid of the content element which is rendered
if.isInList.field = uid
# do not render if content element uid is 1,2 or 44
if.value = 1,2,44
}
For sure, it depends on your configuration, so you cannot copy & paste. And i did not test this code! But it should show the way to go:)
I think your problem is in tt_content.stdWrap.prepend that is different for any languages different from default language.
Try to put this typoscript in your template:
tt_content.stdWrap.prepend >
tt_content.stdWrap.wrap = <div class="content-element">|</div>

TYPO3: How do I insert page content into template

I have some content that I want to appear on multiple pages of my TYPO3 site. I could just insert this into the template, but I also want that content to be editable in the Rich Text Editor.
So I had the idea of creating a hidden page, but I don't know how to insert this content into a template.
Does it require the select typoscript statement?
Also, as a follow-up question, can I add something to say, only include pages that have this page id as their immediate parent in the page hierarchy.
I didn't quite get the second question.
If you want to include some record only to pages under some other page, then this will obviously work:
[PIDinRootline = pages-uid, pages-uid, ...]
temp.foo = RECORDS
temp.foo {
tables = tt_content
source = ID # Enter the object's ID here
}
[end]
On the other hand, if you want to include all records from pages, being children of some other page, then try something like:
1 = CONTENT
1.table = tt_content
1.select {
pidInList = parent-uid
}
Don't know if I got you right though.
Dmitri.
From Include typo3 content elements on every page:
temp.foo = RECORDS
temp.foo {
tables = tt_content
source = ID # Enter the object's ID here
}
Note the ID is the content record ID, not the page ID.
But that doesn't answer the question of how to only include pages/records with a certain parent.
You can set up a hidden page and then "import" the content elements on a given page via typoscript on the pages (or the entire page tree below) as needed.
The "trick" is to use the colPos with the select-statement. With this you can even put multiple (different) content elements in one (hidden) page that show up on different pages (depending on the setting of the column they are "in".
Example:
Create a hidden (or system) page (here example-pageid = $PID_STATIC)
Create a content element on this page (text)
Edit this content element to be shown on the right column (right equals colPos=2)
Put the following typoscript into the template on which you want the content element to be shown. You can set the pid (pageId) in the constants via PID_STATIC or "hardcode" it into the typoscript.
.
lib.aditionalcontent = COA
lib.aditionalcontent {
10 = CONTENT
10 {
table = tt_content
select.where = colPos = 2
select.orderBy = sorting
select.pidInList = {$PID_STATIC}
}
Add the element lib.aditionalcontent into your template where the content should be shown. For example:
.
page.10 = TEMPLATE
page.10.template = FILE
page.10.template.file = fileadmin/maintemplate.htm
page.10.workOnSubpart = DOCUMENT_BODY
page.10.marks.ADITIONAL_CONTENT < lib.aditionalcontent
.
Watch out, that you set the colPos according to the column that you have set the content element into, otherwise it just will not show.
You can use different columns to do this for different content that has to show up/should not show up on a particular page.
This also works with sytemfolders and non-hidden pages.
If you use TemplaVoila, this should also work although you have to switch to the listview to see and set the colum for the content element (if not hidden for this non-admin user).
To find out which colPos-number is which position of the column go to the phpMyAdmin and search for the field "colPos" in the tt_content table.
