HOW TO ENABLE CUSTOM EXTBASE RECORDS

Note: To enable custom records functionality, you must add configuration values to your "additional.php" file in the system settings!

Important to know: Editing the slugs works only if the desired table contains a field for the title and a field for the slug. The names of the fields can be determined by PHP in your "additional.php". But be careful. If you use a wrong field, the slug extension can destroy your data. We take no responsibility for it. So it's best not to test in a live web site before.

Very important to know:

• If you want to use an image symbol, make sure the image exists. The slug extension is currently NOT checking this!
• You can only use tables that are correctly prepared for TYPO3 use
  • The configuration array $GLOBALS['TCA']['tx_your_table_name']['columns']['your_slug_field']['config'] needs to exist in the TYPO3 system. Otherwise the system will throw errors.
  • The fields crdate,tstamp,uid AND your custom fields for the title and the slug need to exist in your table!

Here's an example code you will need to make a custom table work.

/*
Add this to your global system configuration,
ideally in the file "typo3conf/system/additional.php"
*/

<?php
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['slug'] = [
    'settings'=> [
        'defaultSortfield' => 'uid',
        'defaultSortby' => 'ASC',
        'defaultMaxEntries' => 10,
    ],
    'additionalTables' => [
        'tx_news_domain_model_news' => [
            'label' => 'News',
            'slugField' => 'path_segment',
            'titleField' => 'title',
            'pid' => 44,
            'icon' => 'ext-news-type-default' // v14: Use the Icon Identifier!
        ],
    ]
];
