Important: Extended ProjectDemand and demand handling 

Description 

To support the new "Show hidden records" plugin option, the project demand pipeline gained a new transport flag:

  • \FGTCLB\AcademicProjects\Domain\Model\Dto\ProjectDemand has a new bool $showHiddenRecords property with setShowHiddenRecords(bool): void and getShowHiddenRecords(): bool accessors (default false ).
  • \FGTCLB\AcademicProjects\Factory\DemandFactory::createDemandObject() now reads $settings['showHiddenRecords'] and sets the flag on the demand object.
  • \FGTCLB\AcademicProjects\Domain\Repository\ProjectRepository::findByDemand() honours the flag: when it is true , the query ignores only the disabled (hidden) enable field via the Extbase query settings.

The public method signatures of DemandFactory::createDemandObject() and ProjectRepository::findByDemand() are unchanged.

Impact 

The change is non-breaking: the new flag defaults to false and no existing method signature changed. Projects that build a ProjectDemand themselves can opt in by calling setShowHiddenRecords(true) .

Affected Installations 

Only installations that extend or replace the ProjectDemand DTO, the DemandFactory or the ProjectRepository need to take the added flag into account. All other installations are unaffected.
