README
This extension provides the possibility to provide and easily use boilerplates for page creation.
Simple mode
The simple mode is enabled by default and can be disabled by the integrator within the extension manager. With this switch the Page Template module will be disabled and a new option in the click menu is enabled. Also she must provide the UID of the storage folder of the page template. An editor now can create pages with content elements within this storage folder.
- Enable simple mode in Extension Manager > pagetemplates
- Add storage PID of your template folder in Extension Manager
YAML mode
Provides yaml based templates for TYPO3 pages. Allows an editor to select a page template for creating a new page. Allows editing of page and content properties on creation. After disabling the simple mode in the extension manager, a new module will be displayed.
Page TSConfig:
YAML:
Folder structure:
- Templates.yaml
- Structure
- example1.yaml
- example2.yaml
- Structure
Main Templates.yaml file contains the configuration for the available templates:
example1: name: "Example Template 1" previewImage: "EXT:pagetemplates/ext_icon.svg" description: "This is an example template for use in the templates extension." example2: name: "Example Template 2" previewImage: "EXT:pagetemplates/ext_icon2.svg" description: "This is an example template for use in the templates extension."
The keys are the template identifiers (the file name for the configuration of a single template). Name, previewImage and description are used for displaying a preview of the chosen template.
A single template configuration looks like this:
page: description: this is a superb description of the template onCreateEditFields: title,description defaults: title: some title description: and a description tt_content: 1: description: This content element should be used for blobbber onCreateEditFields: header defaults: header: a content element header CType: div colPos: 0 2: description: a hidden element which will only be created defaults: header: some other content element CType: div colPos: 0 3: description: and a third element onCreateEditFields: header,subheader defaults: header: enter something sensible here, please CType: textmedia bodytext: some default bodytext stuff
Be aware that you can only configure tables that are stored directly on the page and have a pid field.
