# Deprecation: #86110 - FrontendEditingController {#deprecation-86110}

See [forge#86110](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/86110)

## Description {#description}

The class `\TYPO3\CMS\Core\FrontendEditing\FrontendEditingController` is not in use anymore, only feedit
instantiates the class for legacy reasons.

Also, property `FrontendBackendUserAuthentication->frontendEdit` which holds an instance of
it, has been marked as deprecated.

## Impact {#impact}

The functionality of this class has been moved into ext:feedit.
If an instance needs access to frontend editing, it can be accessed from there.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

Instances accessing the deprecated class or function will **NOT** trigger a PHP `E_USER_DEPRECATED` error.

## Migration {#migration}

Refer to ext:feedit for inspiration.
