Note°°°: the default value was changed from 0 to 1 in version 3.0.0 and even when L=0 0 will be added from version 3.0.0 to the email-templates when email.dontAppendL=0.

Property details / examples

Languages

You can overwrite the text for other languages like this:

[siteLanguage("languageId") == "1"]
plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.company = Your company
plugin.tx_fpnewsletter._LOCAL_LANG.en.email.pleaseVerify = Please verify your email-address by clicking here:
[END]

Note: the default language of the email-templates is german if settings.email.dontAppendL=0! You find the english version in the files that end with 1.html. You should copy the files and modify the path to the templates via TypoScript. See chapter "Administrator manual". Otherwise set settings.email.dontAppendL=1. Note: till version 3.0.0, the default language is german even when settings.email.dontAppendL=1. From version 3.0.0, the email-templates without a appended number are using translated texts by default.

External fields

You can set a default email-address which was submitted before. E.g. you have a form in the footer and the field-name is nlemail, then set the parameter like this:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.parameters.email = nlemail

That parameter will be read and the value of that parameter will be used as default email-address.

You can do the subscription via an form in an other extension too. E.g. you have an shop and at the end of the order the user wants to subscribe to the newsletter? Then put this extension under the shop extension an select the action "subscribe via external extension". Furthermore you must specify the POST-parameter, which are used in the other extension like this:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.parameters.active = tx_myshop_pi1|newOrder|newsletter
plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.parameters.email = tx_myshop_pi1|newOrder|email

Only parameters of this format are possible. If they are there, a forward will be made to the action create.

Captchas

You can use 2 different captchas. If you want to use the Google reCaptcha v3 you need to provide the website key and the secret key. If you want to use a mathematical captcha, you can use 1 or 2 digits. The maximum value for 2 digits is 19. Example:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.mathCAPTCHA = 2

Optional and requiered fields

Only email and gdpr are mandatory fields in the model. If you need more mandatory fields, you can make them only via TypoScript and the templates required. There are the following optional fields awailable: gender, title, firstname, lastname, address, zip, city, region, country, phone, mobile, fax, www, position, company. You can make all this fields required. Here an example to enable some of this fields in the subscription form via TypoScript setup:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.optionalFields = gender,title,firstname,lastname,www,position,company
plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.optionalFieldsRequired = firstname,lastname,company

Using of categories

The table module_sys_dmail_category contains categories for direct_mail. This extension uses that categories instaed of the categories from sys_category. If you use them like this:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter.settings.module_sys_dmail_category = 1,3

Then this extension will do the same like the direct_mail_subscription extension. It will make two entires into sys_dmail_ttaddress_category_mm and it will set module_sys_dmail_category in tt_address (after the verification). Do you expect something else?

The categories are as hidden-field in the template. You could add checkboxes and copy the checked values by jQuery to the hidden-field if you need a more flexible solution.

Changing the labels

Like in every extension, you can change the labels via TypoScript. Here 2 examples:

plugin.tx_fpnewsletter._LOCAL_LANG.de.tx_fpnewsletter_domain_model_log.email = Email
plugin.tx_fpnewsletter._LOCAL_LANG.de.tx_fpnewsletter_domain_model_log.gdpr_desc2 = Ich bin damit einverstanden, dass die von mir angegebenen Daten elektronisch erhoben und gespeichert werden.

You find the designations in the templates used in f:translate key.

Required extensions

This extensions checks in the new action (subscription form) if required extensions are installed. settings.table can be empty, tt_address or fe_users. When tt_address, direct_mail is required too, if you use settings.module_sys_dmail_html or settings.module_sys_dmail_category. You can disable this check:

plugin.tx_fpnewslettersettings.checkForRequiredExtensions = 0
