Static extension templates

You can add external typoscript templates to your extension if needed. An external typoscript template could define for example a default css for your extension.

For example:

1) setup.txt:

<TS> :

 
 plugin.tx_myext_pi1._CSS_DEFAULT_STYLE (
 
 	body {
 		margin-left: 0px;
 		margin-top: 0px;
 		margin-right: 0px;
 		margin-bottom: 0px;
 		background-image: url(typo3conf/ext/myext/res/fullwall.jpg); 
 		background-repeat: repeat-x
 	}
 )
 

setup.txt is the static template filename and can be found in the folder pi1/static/css of your extension.

2) ext_tables.php:

<PHP> :

 
 t3lib_extMgm::addStaticFile($_EXTKEY,"pi1/static/css","myext default css");
 

in ext_tables.php of your extension call t3lib_extMgm::addStaticFile($extKey,$path,$title) with the right parameters. more

3) "include static template (from extensions)" selector:

Description

With the "include static template (from extensions)" selector in the template record you can add the static template to your typoscript template.
