Version matrix
| Version | TYPO3 | PHP |

Step 1: Install the extension
composer require xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit
Download the extension from the TYPO3 extension repository and install it via Admin Tools > Extensions.
Step 2: Include the site set
The extension ships a site set that registers its settings and TypoScript. Without it, nothing is injected into the frontend.
Add the set to your site configuration:
dependencies:
- xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit
Go to Site Management > Sites, edit your site and add Frontend Edit under Sets for this Site.
Step 3: Verify the setup
- Log into the TYPO3 backend.
- Open a page of your site in the frontend in the same browser.
- The toolbar appears in the bottom-right corner, and hovering a content element reveals its edit button.
Tip
Nothing visible? The FAQ walks through the six usual causes — the most common one is missing content element IDs in custom Fluid templates.

Adapt it
Restrict frontend editing to certain pages, content types or user groups, and change its appearance.
