Feature: #97096 - Non-namespaced arguments in Extbase backend modules
See forge#97096
Description
Extbase plugins and backend modules traditionally use the plugin / module
namespace to prefix their GET parameters and form data. In the frontend context,
this makes sense, as multiple plugins may reside on a page. In the backend,
however, an Extbase module is responsible for rendering a complete view.
Therefore, the namespacing of arguments has been disabled, making URLs easier
to read, more in line with non-Extbase modules and allowing Extbase modules
to directly access outside information like the id
parameter handed over
by the page tree for example.
To allow Extbase modules to configure this behaviour, the Extbase feature
flag enable
can be set in the module
configuration, turning the namespacing off or on.
Impact
Extbase will by default build and react to backend module links without paying attention to the namespace of the parameters.
A link may look like this:
https://
If a module explicitly wants to keep using the namespaced version of the arguments, the feature flag can be set:
module.tx_myextension_somemodule {
features {
enableNamespacedArgumentsForBackend = 1
}
}
