Extension Settings

Some general settings for events2 can be configured in Admin Tools -> Settings.

The settings are divided into several tabs and described here in detail:

Tab: Basic

poiCollectionPid

Default: 0

Only valid, if you have installed EXT:maps2, too.

While creating location records we catch the address and automatically create a maps2 record for you. Define a storage PID where we should store these records.

rootUid

Default: 0

If you have many sys_category records with huge trees in your TYPO3 project, it may make sense to reduce the category trees in our Plugins to a parent category UID (root UID).

recurringPast

Default: 3

Our events2 works within a timeframe. This means, that you have to set an earliest start (in months) for generated day records in past. A value of 3 means 3 months in past. Older events will not be shown in frontend anymore, but are still callable by a Google Search.

recurringFuture

Default: 6

Our events2 works within a timeframe. This means, that you have to set a latest end (in months) for generated day records in future. A value of 6 means 6 months in future. Events above 6 month in future will not be shown in frontend.

defaultCountry

Default: empty

While creating location records we also create a record for EXT:maps2 while saving. If you’re only working for one specific country while creating/editing locations in backend, it may be helpful to set country property with this default country. So you only need to add street and city to find a POI. If you need POIs from all over the world, please keep this field empty.

organizerIsRequired

Default: false

If you want, you can set column Organizer as required. That way an editor has to fill this column.

locationIsRequired

Default: false

If you want, you can set column Location as required. That way an editor has to fill this column.

Tab: Email

emailFromAddress

Default: empty (use value from INSTALL_TOOL)

With events2 you can give your website visitors the possibility to create new events. These created records will be hidden by default. Add an email address of the sender, if a new record was created over the frontend.

emailFromName

Default: empty (use value from INSTALL_TOOL)

With events2 you can give your website visitors the possibility to create new events. These created records will be hidden by default. Add a name of the sender, if a new record was created over the frontend.

emailToAddress

Default: empty

With events2 you can give your website visitors the possibility to create new events. These created records will be hidden by default. Add an email address of the receiver, if a new record was created over the frontend.

emailToName

Default: empty

With events2 you can give your website visitors the possibility to create new events. These created records will be hidden by default. Add a name of the receiver, if a new record was created over the frontend.
