.. include:: /Includes.rst.txt .. _deprecation-69369: =================================================================== Deprecation: #69369 - Use property text instead of data in ext:form =================================================================== See :issue:`69369` Description =========== The FORM elements `TEXTAREA` and `OPTION` currently use "data" as property name to define default "values" which are used as human readable "labels" inside the specific tag. Furthermore, the `TEXTBLOCK` element uses the "content" property to define custom text. All other `FORM` elements use "value". Since "data" implies the possibility to use computed values, this patch deprecates "data" and adds a new property called "text". Impact ====== Using the property "data" will trigger a deprecation log entry. Affected Installations ====================== Any TYPO3 installation using `TEXTAREA`, `OPTION` and `TEXTBLOCK` elements which use the property "data". Migration ========= Remove usage of the "data" property and use "text" instead. Opening a specific form with the form wizard and storing the form again will also migrate from "data" to "text". .. index:: ext:form
