# Deprecation: #95343 - Legacy hook for new content element wizard

See [forge#95343](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/95343)

## Description

The hook `$GLOBALS['TBE_MODULES_EXT']['xMOD_db_new_content_el']['addElClasses']`
which has been used primarily back in TYPO3 v4.x times with the extension
kickstarter for pi-based plugins has been marked as deprecated.

## Impact

When an extension is registering a hook, and the
**Create new content element** wizard is called, a PHP `E_USER_DEPRECATED` error is triggered.

## Affected installations

TYPO3 installations with third-party extensions using this hook.

## Migration

The alternative hook
`$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['cms']['db_new_content_el']['wizardItemsHook']`
can be used instead, which allows to modify and add wizard items
as well.
