What does it do?

This extension allows the editor to set an individual class and / or id attribute for the body tag. If configured, page id, parent page id, language id or random classes are automatically inserted in the body tag.

The class and / or id attribute for the body tag is set automatically or individually by an editor in the page properties. The automatically id attribute consists of the string "page_" and the page alias or page-id, if there's no alias. The automatically class attribute consists of the string "parent_" and the alias or page-id of the parent page. You can change the prepended string via TypoScript. You can define random class names, which are optional saved in the session.
