Re: [TYPO3-english] Rendering sys_category tree in FE
Hi Jan, am i right that your example code doesn't not handle recursive categories? It looks like it just can handle 2 levels (parent and child)... Or do i miss anything? Quite right, at the time i just needed two levels ;) But the need for recursion is of course a good point and I changed the extension to support this. Check out the lates master, it now supports a tree depth of five levels. If more levels are really really needed, they could just be added fluidwise. Infinite recursion is nothing easily achieved with pure Fluid and therefore not implemented. Cheers and happy testing, Torsten ___ TYPO3-english mailing list TYPO3-english@lists.typo3.org http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
Re: [TYPO3-english] Rendering sys_category tree in FE
Hi Philipp Infinite recursion is nothing easily achieved with pure Fluid and therefore not implemented. You do this via a partial. Just make sure to pass some kind of recursion stop variable. Many thanks, that was a pretty good tip! Appears to be one of the obvious things that are sometimes so hard to see… ;) The example is now working perfectly with infinite recursion and the amount of Fluid code is greatly reduced. Thanks again and cheers, Torsten ___ TYPO3-english mailing list TYPO3-english@lists.typo3.org http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
Re: [TYPO3-english] Rendering sys_category tree in FE
Hi Jan, happy new year to you. I had a similar task some time ago. I've put my solution together as a little example extension. Check out this link: https://github.com/digicademy/categories_example Have fun and best regards, Torsten On 2013-12-31 17:43:10 +, Jan Kornblum said: Dear newsgroup, i've got an extended sys_category model to categorize own recipe records. Everything is fine and rendering the category tree in the backend using makeCategorizable() to assign categories works. Now i would like to render a category tree in the frontend (like a HMENU does) to filter my recipe records. how to realize this the best way? categoryRepository-findAll() returns a flat result where each category has got a parent property but somthing like subcategories is missing. Do i have to rebuild the category array myself to store each categories subcategories to be able to loop over them in fluid? Or are there any possibilities given by the core API or by fluid to render a category tree like a HMENU in the frontend?

Re: [TYPO3-english] Viewhelper for Alphabetical Index
Hi Dirk and Robert, hehe, amazing, we're really getting into something of a musicological TYPO3 focus group here... ;) I know how long it can take to 'just sort a few customer specific things out before putting it into the TER'. ; ) If you'd publish your extension 'as-it-is' as a github repository others could help you doing the house-keeping stuff and probably identify some pitfalls too. Yes, you're absolutely right! And that was what i was going to do. I'm currently on a conference trip abroad, otherwise it would have been there yesterday. Stay tuned, I'm currently preparing a sample dataset and a minimal readme and will then push it to GitHub in the course of the day. I would gladly do a short review (since I'm curios anyway). That would be awesome! Everybody who is interested in helping and coding a general solution is invited to join. My colleague Anna and I will also be at T3DD this week and and give it some work.

Re: [TYPO3-english] Viewhelper for Alphabetical Index
Hi folks, If you'd publish your extension 'as-it-is' as a github repository others could help you doing the house-keeping stuff and probably identify some pitfalls too. allright, done: https://github.com/digicademy/catalogueraisonne You'll also find little readme in the extension's root and a sample dataset in Resources/Private/T3D/ to get going quickly. Have lots of fun with testing.

Re: [TYPO3-english] Viewhelper for Alphabetical Index
Hi Dirk Hi Torsten, thank you for publishing your work. I did a quick install (TYPO3 6.0.4) and browsed the sample data in the backend. There are some issues. But I think this list is not the right place to discuss them. Where would you prefer to get them reported: in github or on typo3 forge. Did you already register an extension key and a project on forge.typo3.org? I would have thought that there might be issues on a 6+. Our development basis was a 4.7. Thanks a lot for being so courageous and to test it on a higher version and for your feedback. I think the forge always is a good place for collaborative development, so here we go: http://forge.typo3.org/projects/extension-catalogueraisonne If you would like to join the team with your account just drop me a line. And yes, the extension key 'catalogueraisonne' is registered so that we can have a vessel for our common goal ;) Best, Torsten ___ TYPO3-english mailing list TYPO3-english@lists.typo3.org http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
Re: [TYPO3-english] Viewhelper for Alphabetical Index
Hi Dirk BTW why don't you put the whole extension into the TER? Its concept seems to be quite general and meets even scientific requirements. Thank you very much for sharing! Glad it worked out for you! Really cool that somebody else works on the same topic. Yes, you're absolutely right, we'll share the extension as soon as possible, some project specific things need to be ironed out and then off it goes to TER ;) Cheers, Torsten ___ TYPO3-english mailing list TYPO3-english@lists.typo3.org http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
Re: [TYPO3-english] Viewhelper for Alphabetical Index
Hi Dirk, I'm using extension news (tx_news) to build a catalog raisonné. I'd like to group all entries in list view by the first character (alphabetical index). Hiding all characters without matching entries would be nice. Is there any Viewhelper or another trick to archieve that? Thanks in advance. Cheers Dirk Now that's a funny coincidence… some months ago we did a catalogue raisonné extension for one of our digital humanities projects [1] and needed an alphabet ViewHelper for displaying alphabetical registers [2]. The ViewHelper is used in a f:for loop and segmentizes ordered lists of strings by comparing starting letter(s). It creates only letters for which there are entries. Here are two gists: * Template: https://gist.github.com/tesselation/5888003 * ViewHelper: https://gist.github.com/tesselation/5888020 Maybe it's of some use to you.

Re: [TYPO3-english] XPATH content object question
Hi Erich, My end goal is to retrieve the uid of a news item from the flex form and display it in a news plugin on the page. But taking it in steps, I'm just trying for now to display the uid of the news item in a typoscript object path. Here's how I modified it, but it's still showing up blank in that section, however when I use page.10 instead, it works fine. From your description I take you're now trying it out in a Fluid/Extbase (ext:news?) or Fluidtemplate context? If so, that's what I meant with 'rendering context' in my earlier reply. If you give me some more information on the environment you are trying this we might find a solution. I have a hunch that in the context you use your lib there seems to be no page data in the background, therefore the select part of the CONTENT object to retrieve the flexform XML from the records ends up with nothing. To find out if that's the case you could just set a fixed id of a page where you know you have a news plugin usong the pidInList property of the CONTENT object. Another way would be to set debugData at different points within the CONTENT object, then call your typoscriptObjectPath and check what data you've got there. I think I'm gonna owe you a virtual beer after all this! Please let me know if you have any ideas. Hehe, no worries, you're very welcome. I can imagine taking a deep draught ;) Cheers, Torsten ___ TYPO3-english mailing list TYPO3-english@lists.typo3.org http://lists.typo3.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
Re: [TYPO3-english] XPATH content object question
Hi Erich, #if I uncomment the next line, it displays the proper result, but it isn't applying it to lib.field_tier2_2 #page.10 temp.myvar lib.field_tier2_2 lib.field_tier2_2 = COA lib.field_tier2_2.10 temp.myvar Might be because temp object could be gone before lib object is rendered... depends on your rendering context (have a look on the description of those TLOs in TSRef). Try to use the cObj directly in your lib context not as temp object.

Re: [TYPO3-english] is TYPO3 for me
Hi Dimitry, You can build the site with pure TypoScript (old, ugly, slow, memory consuming, not recommended), Now you have made me very curious with this statement - why old, why ugly, why slow? None of the other approaches is really is usable without TypoScript at some point... TS is the one thing that has remained stable ever since ;) Please don't get me wrong, I'm seriously interested.

Re: [TYPO3-english] retrieve IDs of content items in FCE?
Hi Erich,
Is it possible via typoscript to retrieve the unique IDs of tt_news records
that are placed into an FCE?
For example, I have a Flexible Content Element that contains a field of type
Page Content Elements that allow the user to choose tt_news records. From
typoscript on the main page, can I retrieve the ID of the article that was
selected in that field?
Yes, you can do that using the XPATH cObj. Check out the tutorial on how
to get values from a tt_content flexform:
http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/cobj_xpath
http://typo3.org/extension-manuals/cobj_xpath/1.1.1/view/1/4/#id547457
Its basically the same for FCEs since they also store their values in
XML. You may adapt the following snippet to your structure:
lib.xpath = XPATH
lib.xpath {
source.data = DB : tt_content:###YOUR_FCE_ID###:tx_templavoila_flex
return = string
expression = //field[@index=###YOUR_FIELDNAME###]/value
resultObj {
cObjNum = 1
1.current = 1
}
}
Have fun,
Torsten

Re: [TYPO3-english] Rootline Menu, rename first Level
Hi Kay,
I search a solution for displaying HOME, instead of the real page title
in the very first item of the rootline ;) - any idea instead of
userfunctions und clustered menues ;)
Generally you can override the text of TMENUITEMS with stdWrap and - in
your case - execute this only if the uid of the first page in your
rootline matches the currently processed uid of the item:
10 = HMENU
10 {
entryLevel = 1
special=rootline
special.range= 2|0
1 = TMENU
1 {
NO {
wrapItemAndSub = h2|/h2
doNotLinkIt = 1
stdWrap.override = HOME
stdWrap.override.if {
value = YOUR_ROOTPAGE_ID
equals.field = uid
}
}
}
}
Have fun, Torsten

Re: [TYPO3-english] Get sections out of flexform via typoscript
Hi Chris,
I can get the fields from the flexform in
Typoscript via {field:flexform_thefieldname}.
My question is now: Is it possible to retrieve these fields from a
section via Typoscript or do I have to make a user function?
You can do this with the extension 'cobj_xpath' that I released to TER a
few minutes ago ;)
http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/cobj_xpath/current/
Check out the manual, there is a tutorial on how to get the values from
a flexform XML just using TypoScript and XPATH.
Have fun,

Re: [TYPO3-english] Get sections out of flexform via typoscript
Hi Philipp, Would you be interested to port this extension to core? IMHO we have enough areas where information is stored as XML and such a cObj could be very helpful. That would definitely be a pleasure! BTW, I have a second cObj in stock which I planned to release very soon: cobj_xslt. Both, the XPATH and the XSLT content objects can be used hand in hand to do XML processing via TypoScript. Could the XSLT object also be of interest? I can assist you if you like. Thank you for your kind offer! Where would be the best point to start?
