Attention

TYPO3 v8 has reached its end-of-life March 31st, 2020 and is not maintained by the community anymore. Looking for a stable version? Use the version switch on the top left.

There is no further ELTS support. It is recommended that you upgrade your project and use a supported version of TYPO3.

Convert global Extensions

If you use global extensions, convert them to local ones.

Global extensions used to be saved in folders inside typo3/ext/, such as typo3/ext/realurl. In current versions of TYPO3, this location should no longer be used. Instead, use local extensions below typo3conf/ext/.

To convert a global extension to a local one, do the following:

  • Go to the Extension Manager.

  • Uninstall the global extension.

  • Delete the files of the extension from typo3/ext/, including the directory of that extension itself.

  • Reinstall the extension from TER, which will put it into typo3conf/ext/.
