Important: The static template and the backend layout are registered correctly
Description
Two registrations of this extension did not reach an installation.
The static template was registered under the wrong extension key.
Configuration/TCA/Overrides/sys_template.php passed
'academic_ to
Extension, so the entry offered in a
template record up to version 2.3, Academic Partners Page Setup,
pointed at EXT:, the
TypoScript of a different extension. The TypoScript of this extension was
registered nowhere and could only be reached through the site set
fgtclb/.
What that cost an installation without site sets: the page template directory
of this extension never entered
page., and
the
Partnership data processor was never registered, so
partnerships were not resolved on any page. An installation that has this
extension without
fgtclb/academic-programs
included nothing at all,
silently, because
Sys skips an include whose
extension is not loaded.
The backend layout was imported by the site set only.
Configuration/page.tsconfig is included for the whole installation
since TYPO3 v12.0 (Feature: #96614), while a site set is opt-in per site. The
backend layout of the page type this extension registers was imported only by
Configuration/Sets/AcademicPartners/page.tsconfig. On a site that does
not enable that set the layout
pagets__ resolved
nowhere: the page properties showed [ MISSING LABEL ] for it and it
could not be selected for a new page at all. On TYPO3 v12 there was no delivery
path for the layout whatsoever, because site sets arrived in TYPO3 v13.1
(Feature: #103437).
The static templates of this extension are registered under its own key now,
and Configuration/page.tsconfig imports the backend layout. The missing
label of the layout's content column was added to
Resources/. The empty
Configuration/ was removed.
Impact
The static templates of this extension include its own TypoScript. The backend layout is available on every installation, whether or not it uses site sets.
The static templates were also cut per component in this version, and the entry Academic Partners Page Setup is now called Academic Partners: Shared plugin settings and page rendering, see Breaking: Site sets and static templates have been restructured.
Affected Installations
All installations of this extension.
Migration
The static template fix is not self-healing. A template record that
selected the entry before stores
EXT:, which is still a valid
registration of the other extension, so the record keeps working and keeps
including the TypoScript of
fgtclb/academic-programs
instead of
this one.
Open the template record, tab Advanced Options, field Include TypoScript sets, and add Academic Partners: All components (academic_partners), or the component entries the site needs. Remove the selected Academic Programs: Shared plugin settings and page rendering (academic_programs) unless the site uses that extension on purpose.
No upgrade wizard ships for it: the stored value cannot be told apart from an intentional selection of the programs entry, and rewriting it would break an installation that meant the latter.
Nothing has to be done for the backend layout. Pages already carrying
pagets__ resolve it from now on.
