Templates

This chapter is all about templating EXT:academic_persons_edit

Overriding templates

EXT:academic_persons_edit is using Fluid as template engine.

This documentation won't bring you all information about Fluid but only the most important things you need for using it. You can get more information in the section Fluid templates of the Sitepackage tutorial. A complete reference of Fluid ViewHelpers provided by TYPO3 can be found in the ViewHelper Reference

Change the templates using TypoScript constants

As any Extbase based extension, you can find the templates in the directory Resources/Private/.

If you want to change a template, copy the desired files to the directory where you store the templates.

We suggest that you use a sitepackage extension. Learn how to Create a sitepackage extension.

# TypoScript constants
plugin.tx_academicpersonsedit {
    view {
        templateRootPath = EXT:mysitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/myextension/Templates/
        partialRootPath = EXT:mysitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/myextension/Partials/
        layoutRootPath = EXT:mysitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/myextension/Layouts/
