Manual covering TYPO3 extension mediaconent
Table of Contents
This extension loads HTML content only after the user has clicked on a short note expressing his/her agreement to see it.
It is useful for embedding HTML snippets (often called widgets) from social media content providers like Facebook, Twitter and others. If the user does not agree, no widget is shown and no personal data (IP number etc.) is transferred to the social media provider.
The extension provides a new content element called "Media Consent Opt-In" which has two specific fields: one for the HTML snippet embedding the content, another for selecting the content provider (Facebook, Twitter...)

Frontend view: User has to confirm display of content
After clicking to agree, content is being loaded and displayed
This extension provides a new content element called Media Consent Opt-In. Add it into your page like any other content element, you will find it on the "Special element" Tab:
Extension provides new content element "Media Consent Opt-In"
There are two fields, Content Source and HTML Code:
Fields for Content Provider and HTML Content
Use Content Source for selecting the content provider. If it is not listed, choose "Other" which will result in a more general message in frontend.
HTML Code then contains the HTML snippet used to embed the social media content. These snippets can be fetched directly from the Providers as you probably know. After the user has clicked to agree, this HTML will be loaded dynamically.
To install the extension, perform the following steps:
After install, select the static template
Important
This extensions adds a little JavaScript to the webpage. Therefore it assumes that the top-level TypoScript object of type PAGE is named "page" as it is generally recommended.
# Include JavaScript functions for reloading Content Element.
# Assumes "page" as name for top level PAGE Object
page.includeJSFooter.tx_mediaconsent = EXT:mediaconsent/Resources/Public/JavaScript/MediaConsent.js
Constants for the reload page type
Another constant (reloadPageType) deals with the very rare case that you already use a pagetype of 122 somewhere in your typoscript configuration. Then you can change it here.
The maintainer has changed. The extension development will be continued by jweiland.net.
