# Breaking: #67577 - rte_enabled and flag handling

See [forge#67577](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/67577)

## Description

Content elements of type `text` and `text with image` contained a field "RTE enabled" that
could be unchecked to disable the rich text editor. This field has been removed together with the
`TCA` richtext `flag` handling.

## Impact

The field is removed from database and the flag information is lost.

## Affected Installations

All instances will no longer show the "RTE enabled" field below `text` and `text with image`
content elements below the text field, the `TCA` `flag` is obsolete, see example below.

## Migration

A typical rich text configuration in `TCA` looked like:

```php
'content' => array(
	'label' => 'LLL:EXT:lang/locallang_general.xlf:LGL.text',
	'config' => array(
		'type' => 'text',
		'cols' => '48',
		'rows' => '5',
		'wizards' => array(
			'RTE' => array(
				...
			)
		)
	),
	'defaultExtras' => 'richtext:rte_transform[flag=otherField|mode=ts_css]',
),
```

With this configuration RTE was only rendered if `otherField` had the value 1. This flag is obsolete now:

```php
'defaultExtras' => 'richtext:rte_transform[mode=ts_css]',
```
