# Deprecation: #96996 - Deprecate TypoScriptFrontendController->checkEnableFields

See [forge#96996](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/96996)

## Description

The `TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Controller\TypoScriptFrontendController->checkEnableFields()`
method has been deprecated in favour of the new `\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Domain\Access\RecordAccessVoter`
component.

## Impact

`TypoScriptFrontendController->checkEnableFields()` will trigger a PHP `E_USER_DEPRECATED` error
when called. The extension scanner will report usages as weak match.

## Affected Installations

All installations calling `TypoScriptFrontendController->checkEnableFields()`
in custom extension code.

## Migration

Replace all usages of the deprecated method. Use the `RecordAccessVoter`
component instead, e.g. `RecordAccessVoter->accessGranted()`.
