All Changes

Upgrade procedure ¶

The following changes might break your installation but all are easy to solve.

Change of proxy-class generation
Usage of namespaces
Rename some hooks
Dropping the mm table for tt_content relations
Dropping t3blog importer

Change of proxy-class generation ¶

If you use the feature of EXT:news to extend any class by providing a file called Resources/Private/extend-news.txt, be aware that the implementation and registration changed! Basically all you need is to add the following code to your ext_localconf.php file:

<?php
defined('TYPO3_MODE') or die();

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['news']['classes']['Domain/Model/News'][] = 'eventnews';

Please take a look at the documentation where it is explained in detail.

Usage of namespaces ¶

The extension uses now fully namespaces which meant touching every PHP class at least once! The used vendor name is GeorgRinger!

Rename some hooks ¶

The following files and classes have been renamed:

Hooks/T3libBefunc into Hooks/BackendUtility
Hooks/Tcemain into Hooks/DataHandler
Hooks/CmsLayout into Hooks/PageLayoutView
Hooks/Tceforms into Hooks/FormEngine

The registration of the hook $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['news']['Hooks/T3libBefunc.php']['updateFlexforms'] changed into $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['news']['Hooks/BackendUtility.php']['updateFlexforms'] .

If you use one of these files, change the name to the new version.

Dropping the mm table for tt_content relations ¶

Note

This is only relevant if you use the flag Use content element relation which needs to be set in the configuration inside the Extension Manager.

Previously, tt_content elements have been added by using the mm relation table tx_news_domain_model_news_ttcontent_mm which had some drawbacks. The usage of this table is now dropped which means that after updating, you need to run the Update Wizard in the Install Tool to migrate the relations.

The Upgrade Wizard is called EXT:news Migrate from tt_content mm relation.

Dropping t3blog importer ¶

The code to import records and categories of the extension t3blog has been moved to a separate extension. You can find that here: https://github.com/georgringer/t3ext-news_import_t3blog

Important changes ¶

A lot of code changed in this version. The most important changes are:

A new index has been added to the database table tx_news_domain_model_news to improve the performance of translated records.
The documentation uses now a separate git repositories which is located on GitHub. This makes it easier for everyone to contribute a better documentation. The repository is located here: https://github.com/georgringer/news-documentation
