Converters

TYPO3 Extension campus_events_convert2news => EXT:news

Converts the imported records into target extensions records. The Conversation is defined in a configuration record in the respective target folder of the import. In the future, there will be a filter/limitation feature. You can define the position on which the content is displayed, by Fluid-Templates. TYPO3 Admins can overwrite the Fluid-Templates.
