Insert Plugin (List)¶
Plugins correspond to the list-type content element (the “list” meaning
the list of all plugins). The exact type of plugin used by a given
list-type content element is stored in the list_type
field of
the “tt_content” table.
Thus for rendering the list-type content element is one big
t3tsref:cobj-case object using the list_type
field as key.
When plugins are registered, the appopriate code is automatically added
to this main t3tsref:cobj-case object so that rendering requests
can be dispatched to the plugin’s class.
Configuration of the plugin itself resides in plugin.[extension signature]
.
Some very old plugins however (like “tt_board”) are still registered
“manually” by including all their configuration in a top-level object.
