Extended Event Management – Documentation 

Welcome to the documentation of the Extended Event Management extension, which enhances TYPO3’s sf_event_mgt extension with advanced features for training events, certification workflows, automated communication, and improved event administration.

Introduction 

This extension builds upon the TYPO3 extension sf_event_mgt and adds powerful enhancements for managing both standard and training events.

Main improvements include:

• Support for event types: Standard and Training
• Certificate generation with customizable PDFs
• Additional training-related registration fields
• Verification workflows for certificate eligibility
• Training points handling
• Email tools for certificates and online meeting information
• Automated reminder emails
• Backend modules for participant management

Installation 

Configuration 

Changing paths of the templates 

Please do never change templates directly in the Ressources folder of the extensions, since your changes will get overwritten by extension updates.

The easiest way to override templates is to set the following constants:

• plugin.vek_event_extensions.view.templateRootPath
• plugin.vek_event_extensions.view.partialRootPath
• plugin.vek_event_extensions.view.layoutRootPath

Those values will automatically be added after the default paths configuration of the extension. If you prefer to configure the path-values using TypoScript setup, please refer to the example below (note the plural of the path-name):

plugin.vek_event_extensions {
  view {
    templateRootPaths {
      3 = EXT:sitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/EventExtensions/Templates/
    }
    partialRootPaths {
      3 = EXT:sitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/EventExtensions/Partials/
    }
    layoutRootPaths {
      3 = EXT:sitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/EventExtensions/Layouts/
    }
  }
}

Doing so, you can just override single files from the original templates.

Adjust registration template only via TS constants 

In case you just want to override the registration template, you can also use the following constants:

• module.vek_event_extensions.settings.certificate.templatePath
• module.vek_event_extensions.settings.certificate.stampImagePath

Those constants allow you to set a custom template file and a custom stamp image. Example:

EXT:sitepackage/Resources/Private/Extensions/EventExtensions/Templates/Certificate/CustomTemplate.html EXT:sitepackage/Resources/Public/Images/CustomStamp.png

Using the remaining constants you can adjust the sender names, email addresses and subject lines for the respective emails. They should be self-explanatory.

If no sender name or email address is provided, the notification mail settings from sf_event_mgt will be used. If no subject line is set, emails will not be sent.

Rootpage UID for email links in scheduler task 

To set the rootpage UID of your site for sending emails via scheduler task, please set the following constant:

• plugin.vek_event_extensions.settings.cliSitePageUid

If no value is set, the UID "1" will be used.
