Important: The static template and the backend layout are registered correctly
Description
Two registrations of this extension did not reach an installation.
The static template was registered under the wrong extension key.
Configuration/ passed
'academic_ to
Extension, so the entry offered in a
template record as Academic Partners Page Setup pointed at
EXT: — the TypoScript of a
different extension. The TypoScript of this extension was registered nowhere and
could only be reached through the site set
fgtclb/.
What that costs an installation without site sets: the page template directory
of this extension never enters
page., and the
Partnership data processor is never registered, so partnerships
are not resolved on any page. An installation that has this extension without
fgtclb/academic-programs
included nothing at all, silently —
Sys skips an include whose extension is not loaded.
The backend layout was imported by the site set only.
Configuration/ is auto-included for the whole installation
since TYPO3 v12.0 (Feature: #96614); a site set is opt-in per site. The backend
layout of the page type this extension registers, and the descriptions of its
content elements, were imported only by
Configuration/. On a site that does
not enable that set the layout
pagets__ resolved
nowhere: the page properties showed [ MISSING LABEL ] for it and it
could not be selected for a new page at all.
Both imports moved to Configuration/, where
fgtclb/academic-programs
already had them, and the copy in the site
set was removed rather than left to be applied twice. The empty
Configuration/, which nothing imports any more,
was removed with it.
The missing label of the layout's content column was added to
Resources/ in the same change.
Impact
The static template Academic Partners Page Setup now includes the TypoScript of this extension. The backend layout and the content element descriptions are available on every installation, whether or not it uses site sets.
Affected Installations
All installations of this extension.
The static template fix is not self-healing. A template record that selected
the entry before stores
EXT:, which is still a
valid registration of the other extension, so the record keeps working and
keeps including the wrong tree. The now correct entry has to be added to the
record by hand. No upgrade wizard ships for it: the stored value is genuinely
ambiguous — it cannot be told apart from an intentional selection of
Academic Programs Page Setup — and rewriting it would break an installation
that meant the latter.
Nothing has to be done for the backend layout. Pages already carrying
pagets__ resolve it from now on.
