Attention

TYPO3 v7 has reached its end-of-life November 30th, 2018 and is not maintained by the community anymore. Looking for a stable version? Use the version switch on the top left.

There is no further ELTS support. It is recommended that you upgrade your project and use a supported version of TYPO3.

Top Level Objects

These are the User TSconfig Top Level Objects (TLOs):

Property

admPanel

Data type

->ADMPANEL

Description

Options regarding the frontend admin panel.

Property

options

Data type

->OPTIONS

Description

Options for the user, various

Property

mod

Data type

(see ->MOD of Page TSconfig)

Description

Overriding values for the backend modules

Deprecated. Use page.mod instead!

Property

setup.default

setup.override

Data type

->SETUP

Description

Default values and override values for the user settings known from the setup module.

Note:

There is a tricky aspect to these settings: If first you have set a value by setup.override and then remove it again, you will experience that the value persists to exist. This is because it is saved in the backend user's profile. Therefore, if you have once set a value, do not remove it again but rather set it blank if you want to disable the effect again!

Property

TCAdefaults.[table name].[field]

Data type

string

Description

Sets default values for records. The order of default values when creating new records in the backend is this:

  1. Value from $GLOBALS['TCA']

  2. Value from User TSconfig (these settings)

  3. Value from Page TSconfig

  4. Value from "defVals" GET variables (see BackendUtility::getModuleUrl('record_edit'))

  5. Value from previous record based on 'useColumnsForDefaultValues'

However the order for default values used by TYPO3CMSCoreDataHandlingDataHandler if a certain field is not granted access to for user will be:

  1. Value from $GLOBALS['TCA']

  2. Value from User TSconfig (these settings)

So these values will be authoritative if the user has no access to the field anyway.

Example:

This sets the default hidden flag for pages to "clear".

TCAdefaults.pages.hidden = 0
