These hooks can be called from your extension like this: in your localconf.php // hook for booking

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['booking']['bookingFormHeaderHook'][] = 'EXT:bookinghooks/pi1/class.tx_bookinghooks_pi1.php:tx_bookinghooks_pi1';

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['booking']['bookingFormDataHook'][] = 'EXT:bookinghooks/pi1/class.tx_bookinghooks_pi1.php:tx_bookinghooks_pi1';

And the functions

function bookingFormDataHook(&$marks, $row, $conf, $obj) {
...
}

function bookingFormHeaderHook(&$marks, $row, $conf, $obj) {
        $marks['###DELETE###']= 'xxx';
}

Updating from booking 0.3.8¶

A table name have changed from tx_booking to tx_booking_book.

If you want to preserve the old booking data follow one of these steps:

1. When updating from version 0.3.8 dump the table tx_bookings first and then insert the data from tx_booking to the new table tx_booking_book. The data strucure of the new table tx_booking_book is the same as the old table tx_booking.

2. Backup the tables of the extension. Insert the new extension, a new table tx_booking_book is created. Remove this table and rename the old table tx_booking to tx_booking_book.
