# Feature: The plugins dispatch the plugin view event {#feature-plugin-view-event}

## Description {#description}

Both project list plugins of **academic_projects** dispatch
`\FGTCLB\AcademicBase\Event\ModifyPluginViewEvent` of
**academic_base**, once each time they render, after assigning their
own variables. A listener adds a variable to their templates without replacing
the controller.

The context of the event names the extension `AcademicProjects` and the
plugin names `ProjectList` and `ProjectListSingle`, which a listener
checks for the plugin it means.

They dispatch it after their list event, `ModifyProjectListEvent`, which
stays.

The event, with an example listener, is described in the [changelog of
academic_base](https://docs.typo3.org/p/fgtclb/academic-base/main/en-us/Changelog/3.0/Feature-ModifyPluginViewEvent.html).

## Impact {#impact}

A project adds a variable to the templates of these plugins with an event
listener instead of a subclass or a copy of the controller. The behaviour is
the same on TYPO3 v13 and v14.
