Additionally add to the description of select itself (in the introduction section, above the table): 

Be careful if you are using GET/POST data (for example GPvar) in select, you could introduce SQL injections. 
Always secure input from outside, for example with intval.

17896: Core - Capitalizing with stdWrap (TypoScript) [Resolved to Benjamin Mack]

Fabien Udriot

Add to TSref -> Section "Data types" -> "Data types reference" -> Property "case":

"capitalize" - Returns the given string with the first character of each word in uppercase.

19347: Core - Integrate string replacement to stdWrap [Closed to Oliver Hader]

Add to TSref, Section stdWrap, new section after "split" (similar to how split is represented there):

  • New property: replacement
  • Data type: ->replacement
  • Description: Performs an ordered search/replace on the current content with the possibility of using PCRE regular expressions. An array with numeric indexes defines the order of actions and thus allows multiple replacements at once.


New section: replacement

Performs an ordered search/replace on the current content with the possibility of using PCRE regular expressions. An array with numeric indexes defines the order of actions and thus allows multiple replacements at once.

Property Data type Description
search string /stdWrap Defines the string that shall be replaced.
replace string /stdWrap Defines the string to be used for the replacement.
useRegExp boolean /stdWrap Defines that the search and replace strings are considered as PCRE regular expressions.

Example:

10 {
  search = #(a )CAT#i
  replace = \1cat
  useRegExp = 1
}

Example: 

20 = TEXT
20 {
  value = There_is_a_cat,_a_dog_and_a_tiger_in_da_hood!_Yeah!
  stdWrap.replacement {
    10 {
      search = _
      replace.char = 32
    }
    20 {
      search = in da hood
      replace = around the block
    }
    30 {
      search = #a (Cat|Dog|Tiger)#i
      replace = an animal
      useRegExp = 1
    }
  }
}

20473: Core - Starttime/endtime is not taken into account when caching [Closed to Steffen Gebert]

Steffen Gebert

Add to TSref, Section: Setup -> CONFIG, near cache_period

  • Property: cache
  • Data type: array
  • Description: Determine the maximum cache lifetime of a page.

The maximum cache lifetime of a page can not only be determined by the start and stop times of content elements on the page itself, but also by arbitrary records on any other page. However, the page has to be configured so that TYPO3 knows the start and stop times of which records to include. Otherwise, the cache entry will be used although a start/stop date already passed by.

To include records of type <tablename> on page <pid> into the cache lifetime calculation of page <page-id>, add the following TypoScript: config.cache.<page-id> = <tablename>:<pid>

Multiple record sources can be added as comma-separated list, see the examples.

You can use the keyword "all" instead of a <page-id> to consider records for the cache lifetime of all pages.

Examples:

config.cache.10 = fe_users:2 This includes the fe_users records on page 2 in the cache lifetime calculation for page 10.

config.cache.10 = fe_users:2,tt_news:11 This includes records from multiple sources, namely the fe_users records on page 2 and the tt_news records on page 11.

config.cache.all = fe_users:2 Consider the fe_user records on page 2 for the cache lifetime of all pages.

27694: Core - Speedup backend and allow compression in frontend [Closed to Kai Vogel]

Kai Vogel / Steffen Gebert

Section: Setup -> CONFIG, change "minifyJS"

minifyJS is deprecated and will be removed with TYPO3 4.8. Use config.compressJs instead.


Section: Setup -> CONFIG, add "compressJs"

  • Property: compressJs
  • Data type: boolean
  • Description:

Enabling this option together with $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['FE']['compressionLevel'] in the Install Tool delivers Frontend JavaScript files using GZIP compression.

This can significantly reduce file sizes of linked JavaScript files and thus decrease loading times.

Please note that this requires .htaccess to be adjusted, as otherwise the files will not be readable by the user agent. Please see the description of $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['FE']['compressionLevel'] in the Install Tool.

Example: config.compressJs = 1

Note: TYPO3 comes with a built-in compression handler, but you can also register your own one using $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['jsCompressHandler'].

Example: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['jsCompressHandler'] = t3lib_extMgm::extPath($_EXTKEY) . 'Classes/class.tx_myext_jsCompressHandler.php:tx_myext_jsCompressHandler->compressJs';


Section: Setup -> CONFIG, change "minifyCSS"

minifyCSS is deprecated and will be removed with TYPO3 4.8. Use config.compressCss instead.


Section: Setup -> CONFIG, add "compressCss"

  • Property: compressCss
  • Data type: boolean
  • Description:

If set, CSS files will be minified and compressed.

Minification will remove all excess space. The more significant compression step (using gzip compression) requires $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['FE']['compressionLevel'] to be enabled in the Install Tool. For this to work you also need to activate the gzip-related compressionLevel options in .htaccess, as otherwise the compressed files will not be readable by the user agent.

Example: config.compressCss = 1

Note: TYPO3 comes with a built-in compression handler, but you can also register your own one using $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cssCompressHandler'].

Example: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cssCompressHandler'] = t3lib_extMgm::extPath($_EXTKEY) . 'Classes/class.tx_myext_cssCompressHandler.php:tx_myext_cssCompressHandler->compressCss';



Section: Setup -> CONFIG, replace (!) "concatenateJsAndCss"

  • Property: concatenateJs
  • Data type: boolean
  • Description: Setting config.concatenateJs merges JavaScript files referenced in the Frontend together.

Example: config.concatenateJs = 1

Note: TYPO3 comes with a built-in concatenation handler, but you can also register your own one using $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['jsConcatenateHandler'].

Example: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['jsConcatenateHandler'] = t3lib_extMgm::extPath($_EXTKEY) . 'Classes/class.tx_myext_jsConcatenateHandler.php:tx_myext_jsConcatenateHandler->concatenateJs';


  • Property: concatenateCss
  • Data type: boolean
  • Description:

Setting config.concatenateCss merges Stylesheet files referenced in the Frontend together.

Example: config.concatenateCss = 1

Note: TYPO3 comes with a built-in concatenation handler, but you can also register your own one using $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cssConcatenateHandler'].

Example: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cssConcatenateHandler'] = t3lib_extMgm::extPath($_EXTKEY) . 'Classes/class.tx_myext_cssConcatenateHandler.php:tx_myext_cssConcatenateHandler->concatenateCss';

    • .allWrap - wraps the complete tag, useful for conditional comments.
    • .disableCompression - If config.compressJs is enabled, this disables the compression of this file.
    • .excludeFromConcatenation - If config.concatenateJs is enabled, this prevents the file from being concatenated.
    • .external - If set, there is no file existence check. Useful for inclusion of external files.
    • .forceOnTop - boolean flag. If set, this file will be added on top of all other files.

Example:

Kilian Hann:

Add to TSref, section "stdWrap", after property "hash"

  • New property: "round"
  • Data type: ->round
  • Description: Round the value with the selected method to the given number of decimals.


New section: round

With this property you can round the value up, down or to a certain number of decimals. For each roundType the according PHP function will be used. The value will be converted to a float value before applying the selected round method.

  • Property: roundType
  • Data type: string /stdWrap
  • Description: Round method which should be used.
    Possible keywords:
    • ceil: Round the value up to the next integer.

  • Description: Number of decimals the rounded value will have. Only used with the roundType "round". Defaults to 0, so that your input will in that case be rounded up or down to the next integer.
  • Default: 0

Example: 

lib.number = TEXT
lib.number {
  value = 3.14159
  round.roundType = round
  round.decimals = 2
}

This returns 3.14.

28314: Core - TCA: Allow parameters to be specified for userFunc [Closed to Xavier Perseguers]

Sectoin: Additional $TCA features

Subsection: userFunc

Description: Additional parameters may be passed to the user function with the array key 'parameters': 

'map' => array(
    'label' => 'Google Map',
    'config' => array(
        'type' => 'user',
        'userFunc' => 'Tx_MyExt_Tca_Map->render',
        'parameters' => array(
            'latitude' => 'gps_latitude',
            'longitude' => 'gps_longitude',
        ),
    ),
),

25315: Core - Add a value slider as wizard to TCEforms [Resolved to Steffen Kamper]

Section: Additional $TCA features

Subsection: Specific wizard configuration options based on type

New wizard type: slider

Description: Adds a slider widget to the right of the input/select field. For select-type fields, the wizard will "slide" through the items making up the field. For input-type fields, it will work for fields evaluated to integer, float and time. It is advised to also define a "range" property, otherwise the slider will go from 0 to 10000.

Key: step

Type: integer/float

description: Sets the step size the slider will use. This can - for floating point values - also be a floating point itself.

Key: width

Type: pixels

Description: defines the width of the slider

Default: 400

NOTE: the slider wizard works properly with the range property only as of TYPO3 4.6.1, see: http://forge.typo3.org/issues/31724


26829: Core - Improve Backend search [Closed to Dmitry Dulepov]

Section: ['ctrl']

New option: 'searchFields' – comma-separated list of fields that can be searched by the user in the Backend. Starting from TYPO3 4.6 tables participate in Backend search only if they have this option.

Section: ['columns'][fieldname], in the description of the "config" option add to the block titled "Notice: For all configuration types, the":

  • 'search' an array with additional search options for the field:
    • 'pidonly' – searches in the column onlyif search happens on the single page (does not search the field if searching in the whole table)
    • 'case' – make the search case-sensitive. This requires a proper database collation for the field (see your database documentation)
    • 'andWhere' – additional SQL WHERE statement without 'AND'. With this it is possible to place an additional condition on the field being searched in. For example, for tt_content table it males sense to search the 'bodytext' field if 'CType' field is set to 'text' or 'textpic' only.
