The PageLinkHandler

The PageLinkHandler enables editors to link to pages and content.

It is implemented in class \TYPO3\CMS\Backend\LinkHandler\PageLinkHandler of the system extension backend. The class is marked as @internal and contains neither hooks nor events.

The PageLinkHandler is preconfigured in the page TSconfig as:

EXT:some_extension/Configuration/page.tsconfig 
TCEMAIN.linkHandler {
   page {
      handler = TYPO3\CMS\Backend\LinkHandler\PageLinkHandler
      label = LLL:EXT:backend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_browse_links.xlf:page
   }
}

Enable direct input of the page id

It is possible to enable an additional field in the link browser to enter the uid of a page. The uid will be used directly instead of selecting it from the page tree.

The link browser field for entering a page uid.

Enable the field with the following page TSConfig:

EXT:some_extension/Configuration/page.tsconfig 
TCEMAIN.linkHandler.page.configuration.pageIdSelector.enabled = 1
