Users Manual¶
To setup and use the extension, you should do the following:
Install The Extension
Create or set a Data Folder (Sysfolder, named "download-container" e.g.) and point on himself in the field "General Record Storage page"! This is important for finding the categories later on! You can also put a download object into a normal page instead of a sysfolder; the sysfolder then is only for the general categories. Don’t forget to point to that sysfolder from this page in the "General Record Storage Page".
Add Categories and Downloads into this data sysfolder or the downloads into the page where he should be visible.
Create a new page and add the plugin (and add download items if they are not in a sysfolder)
Configure the options
Create the sites (data folder, …)¶
You have to create several pages. The usual way is to create one sysfolder where the records and categories are saved in.It´s possible to create the extension records in normal sites but we recommend to use a new Storage Folder because there can be many records and you can keep everything in one place.
Create a page where the LIST view appears
Create a page where the SINGLE view appears (not absolutely needed)
Create a SYSFOLDER named download-container e.g. beyond your site with LIST view.
On each page you have to set the General record store page to your (category-) sysfolder.
Put the plugin into your page(s) template with Include static (from extensions) = kk_downloader and put the desired parameters in.
Set the plugin-configuration into the template setup box. You can copy and paste it from this manual if you want (see below)
Configure the options: LIST View¶
After you create a page and add the plugin, you have to edit the Flexform to get the right settings.
Configure the options: SINGLE View¶
The same as above, but choose SINGLE instead of LIST!
What you have to look for!¶
Tell the plugin the ID of the page with the single view:
You have the possibility to edit the following plugin properties via setup:plugin.tx_kkdownloader_pi1.singlePID = 28 (e.g.) Put the marker ###MORE### into your HTML-template. This link will be inactive if
the singlePID is not given or has a wrong UID or
the correct singlePID-page has the hidden status.
TYPO3 LiveSearch¶
LiveSearch is the search form in the TYPO3 backend at the upper right corner.
kk_downloader comes with an additional configuration to find download
records much faster. In the world of LiveSearch it is called a "command". The
command for kk_downloader records is download. Start your search
with #download: and then add your search value. Example: #download:map.
