Feature: #89142 - Create site configuration if page is created on root level¶
See forge#89142
Description¶
When creating a typical new page on the root level of a TYPO3 installation, a new site configuration is now automatically created as well. This makes it easier to work with multi-sites and get a basic configuration set up more quickly than before.
Under the hood, a new DataHandler
hook checks for new pages being one of the following page types:
Default pages
Links
Shortcuts
The entry point consists of the current domain where the configuration has been created, plus a short identifier using
the page uid and the prefix "site", e.g. https://example.com/site-42
.
The identifier of the site uses the entry point without the domain, and a MD5 hash of the page id to avoid potential
conflicts for existing site configurations. An identifier may look like site-42-a1d0c6e83f
.
Impact¶
A new site configuration with a pre-defined identifier, entry point and a default language gets created automatically.
Ideally, there are no scenarios anymore where a site needs to be created after a first page is created, avoiding
any issues related to Slug handling for root pages, which are always set to /
by default.
