Breaking: Migrated extbase plugins from list_type to CType 

Description 

TYPO3 v13 deprecated the tt_content sub-type feature, only used for CType=list sub-typing also known as list_type and mostly used based on old times for extbase based plugins. It has been possible since the very beginning to register Extbase Plugins directly as CType instead of CType=list sub-type, which has now done.

Technically this is a breaking change, and instances upgrading from 1.x version of the plugin needs to update corresponding tt_content records in the database and eventually adopt addition, adjustments or overrides requiring to use the correct CType.

Impact 

The change relates to following plugins:

  • academicjobs_newjobform
  • academicjobs_list
  • academicjobs_detail

Affected Installations 

All installations using the above listed plugins prior V2.1.

Migration 

A TYPO3 UpgradeWizard academicJobs_pluginUpgradeWizard is provided to migrate plugins from CType=list to dedicated CTypes matching the new registration.
