# Extension configuration {#extension-configuration}

1.  Go to **Admin Tools > Settings > Extension Configuration**
1.  Choose **xima_typo3_frontend_edit**

The extension currently provides the following configuration options:

## Features {#extconf-enablesaveandclosebutton}

    -   *Type:* boolean
    -   *Default:* 1

    Enable this option to render a save and close button in the header of edit forms.

-   **Return URL generation**

    -   *Type:* boolean
    -   *Default:* 0

    Enable this option to ignore the referer header for the return url and force the url generation

-   **Target blank**

    -   *Type:* boolean
    -   *Default:* 0

    Enable the target blank option for all Edit Menu links to open in a new tab

-   **Redirect**

    -   *Type:* boolean
    -   *Default:* 0

    Use the redirect option to redirect the edit links, so the full TYPO3 backend is loaded instead of only the edit form

    > [!WARNING]
    > This option is useful if you want to use the full TYPO3 backend, e.g. language switch or modal popups for for inline group type.
    > But keep in mind, that with this option the return to the frontend using the "close" button will not work anymore.

## Debug {#extconf-frontenddebugmode}

-   **Frontend Debug Mode**

    -   *Type:* boolean
    -   *Default:* 0

    Enable debug logging in browser console for detailed information about content element parsing and assignment.

    > [!WARNING]
    > This option is only for development purposes and should not be enabled in production environments.
