# Breaking: #87616 - Removed hook for altering page links {#breaking-87616}

See [forge#87616](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/87616)

## Description {#description}

The hook `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['typolinkProcessing']['typolinkModifyParameterForPageLinks']`
has been removed in favor of a new PSR-14 event `\TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Event\ModifyPageLinkConfigurationEvent`.

The event is called after TYPO3 has already prepared some functionality
within the `PageLinkBuilder`. This therefore allows to modify more
properties, if needed.

## Impact {#impact}

Any hook implementation registered is not executed anymore
in TYPO3 v12.0+.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

TYPO3 installations with custom extensions using this hook.

## Migration {#migration}

The hook is removed without deprecation in order to allow extensions
to work with TYPO3 v11 (using the hook) and v12+ (using the new event).

Use the [PSR-14 event](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/changelog:feature-87616)
to allow greater influence in the functionality.
