Feature: "Show hidden records" plugin option for the jobs list
Description
A new boolean plugin option Show hidden records
(
settings., a toggle, off by default) was added
to the following plugin:
- Jobs List (
academicjobs_)list
When the option is enabled, the frontend job listing includes hidden (disabled)
records, also for visitors without a preview of hidden records. Only the
hidden enable column (disabled) is ignored. The deleted,
starttime/endtime and fe_ restrictions stay in effect.
On a translated page the listing shows the translation of a hidden record,
and follows the fallback type of the site language like for any other
record. The start and end time of the default record keep deciding for its
translation. One limit remains on TYPO3 v12 with
fallback:
a record whose translation differs from its default record in visibility is
listed twice (default visible, translation hidden) or not at all (default
hidden, translation visible). With
fallback, and on
TYPO3 v13, it is listed once, with its translation.
The option is core-version-aware and available in both the TYPO3 v12 and v13 flexform data structures of the plugin.
Impact
Editors can now opt in per plugin instance to display hidden jobs in the frontend, for example to preview upcoming or intentionally hidden records without changing the global preview settings. The option is off by default, so existing plugin instances keep their current behaviour.
