What this extension does

Websites regularly display the same company information in many places: the postal address in the footer, the phone number on the contact page, the data protection officer in the privacy policy, and so on. If this information changes, every single occurrence has to be updated manually — a tedious and error-prone task.

sitemasterdata solves this by storing master data such as the company name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and legally required officer roles centrally in the TYPO3 Site Settings. Editors insert a short placeholder (e.g. [[sitemasterdata.phone]]) anywhere in a text. TYPO3 replaces every placeholder with the current value automatically when the page is rendered. A phone number that changes needs to be updated in exactly one place — all pages reflect the new value immediately.

Features

• Central storage of master data per site in TYPO3 Site Settings
• Placeholder dropdown in the CKEditor toolbar — no manual typing required
• Current values shown as a preview in the dropdown label
• Automatic frontend replacement in all RTE content
• Direct access to individual values in Fluid templates and TypoScript
• Ready-made TypoScript cObject for a complete formatted address block
• Multisite-capable — each site maintains its own independent values
• Extendable with additional fields without modifying this extension

Requirements

Installation

composer require porthd/sitemasterdata
vendor/bin/typo3 cache:flush

Then activate the Site Set porthd/sitemasterdata in your site configuration (config/sites/<your-site>/config.yaml):

dependencies:
  - typo3/theme-camino
  - porthd/sitemasterdata

Extending

Additional fields (e.g. social media profiles, VAT ID, registration number) can be added from a separate extension without modifying this one. The recommended approach is Symfony Service Decoration — see EXT:sitemasterdata_extend for a fully worked example.
