Use your own template files

If you need changes on the Fluid template files, you should copy the needed files to your Site Package. You need the same folder structure as described her: Fluid Templates. Please copy the needed folders and files in your Site Package Resources/Private folder.

You find those structure also in the extension:

• Resources/Private/Layouts

• Resources/Private/Templates

• Resources/Private/Partials

You don't need to copy all files. Just copy the files and folders you need.

Note

If you copy files from subfolders, you must keep the existing subfolder structure also in your Site Packages! That means Templates/Operation/List.html must be copied to a subfolder Operation in your Templates folder.

After that you can change the paths in constants to your own Site Package or in Constants Editor. This way you can edit some files but not all. It's easier to check differences if you upgrade operations. Probably you have to change less files after updating.

Change the templates paths in TypoScript constants

Here an example for TypoScript constants to change the paths to Fluid templates.

plugin.tx_operations {
        view {
                templateRootPath = EXT:your_site_package/Resources/Private/Extensions/operations/Templates/
                partialRootPath = EXT:your_site_package/Resources/Private/Extensions/operations/Partials/
                layoutRootPath = EXT:your_site_package/Resources/Private/Extensions/operations/Layouts/
        }
}

Tip

Some setting should be placed in Site Package and some are better placed in database. Example: storagePid should better set in database, but itemsPerPage is more an default setting which can be used in different environments in generally. It doesn't depends on the data in database (e.g. different pages/uids)
