Quick start

  1. Install the Extension

  2. Include the Extension configuration

    The modern recommended way to reference the configuration of this extension since TYPO3 v13 is via its Site Set. Alternatively, it is still possible to use the static include in the template record.

    1. Go to the Sites module under Site Management → Sites

    2. Select Partner Rating under Sets for this Site

    3. Click Save and Close.

    Tip

    You will notice that the constant editor can no longer be opened if the configuration was referenced via Site Set. To overwrite the default setting values of EXT:partner_rating/Configuration/Sets/PartnerRating/settings.definitions.yaml, use a file config/sites/<site-identifier>/settings.yaml.

    Example: Activating the integration of Bootstrap assets (for test purposes)

    config/sites/<site-identifier>/settings.yaml
    1plugin:
2  tx_partnerrating_pi1:
3    settings:
4      includeBootstrap: 1

  3. Create a record storage page and records for departments, partners and reasons

    1. Go to the Page module under Web → List.

    2. In the Pagetree create a new page of type "Folder" and select this page

    3. Click Create new record in the module header.

    4. Select Partner Rating → Department to create new Departments. For each department add a "Title" and click Save and Close.

    5. Select Partner Rating → Partner to create new Partners. For each partner add a "Title" and a "Partner Nr" and click Save and Close.

    6. Select Partner Rating → Rating Reason to create new Rating reasons. For each Rating reasons add a "Title" and a "Description" and click Save and Close.

  4. Create the plugin content element

    1. Go to the Page module under Web → Page.

    2. In the Pagetree view click on the page where you want the partner rating form plugin content element to be displayed.

    3. Click the + Content button where you want the partner rating form plugin content element to be placed.

    4. Switch to the tab Plugins.

    5. Select the Partner Rating item.

    6. In the tab General you may want to enter some general content information like a header.

    7. Switch to tab Plugin.

    8. Under Record Storage Page add the data storage page on which the partner rating data records for departments, partners and rating reasons are located (from step 3) and which will later also store the submitted ratings.

    9. Under Recursive select a recursive level if the records are to be obtained from lower hierarchy levels. If in doubt, leave this value at "0". This means that all records of the extension are in the same storage page.

    10. Click Save and Close.

  5. Done

    The partner rating form plugin content element can now be viewed in the frontend on the page where you created the plugin.
