# Feature: #76209 - Hook to register custom result browsers in AbstractPlugin

See [forge#76209](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/76209)

## Description

The hook `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS'][\TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Plugin\AbstractPlugin::class]['pi_list_browseresults']` allows
registering custom result browser implementations. This approach allows to override the default implementation of
`AbstractPlugin::pi_list_browseresults()` for either all extensions or only for specific ones.

## Impact

The hook may be registered in `ext_localconf.php`:

```php
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS'][\TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Plugin\AbstractPlugin::class]['pi_list_browseresults'][1463475262] = \Vendor\ExtensionKey\Hook\ResultBrowserHook::class
```

The registered class must implement the method `pi_list_browseresults()` with the following arguments:

-   int `$showResultCount` Determines how the results of the page browser will be shown
-   string `$tableParams` Attributes for the table tag which is wrapped around the table cells containing the browse links
-   array `$wrapArr` Array with elements to overwrite the default $wrapper-array
-   string `$pointerName` Variable name for the pointer
-   bool `$hscText` Enable htmlspecialchars() for the pi_getLL function
-   bool `$forceOutput` Forces the output of the page browser if you set this option to `true`
-   object `$pObj` The AbstractPlugin instance calling the hook
