# Deprecation: #66905 - Deprecate uc->classicPageEditMode and editRegularContentFromId option {#deprecation-66905}

See [forge#66905](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/66905)

## Description {#description}

The BE-User uc option "classicPageEditMode" which was used prior to TYPO3 CMS 4.0 has been removed some time ago.
The functionality `editRegularContentFromId` which was then triggered in EditDocumentController has been marked
for deprecation.

## Impact {#impact}

Any direct calls using `editRegularContentFromId` via GET parameter or calling `editRegularContentFromId()`
directly from a third-party extension will trigger a deprecation message.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

Any installation using third-party code to restore the old behaviour.

## Migration {#migration}

Remove calls to the functionality.
