Introduction¶

Users manual¶

-Install the extension and update your database

-create a page or pages where you want to diplay you events and insert the ecv-subscription-manager plugin

-copy the subscriptions.html and email.html files from EXT:/pi1/ to your fileadmin folder, or anywhere else within your fileadmin folder.

-insert some typoscript to configure the extension, for now it is just the directory of the template.and the folder where to look for records. (if this is not set, the current page where the plugin is included will be used)

plugin.tx_ecvsubscrmgr_pi1 {
        mainConfig.pageID = 71
        mainConfig.Template = fileadmin/templates/ecv_subscrmgr/subscriptions.html
        mainConfig.emailTemplate = fileadmin/templates/ecv_subscrmgr/email.html
}

- create some records by switching to listview and to the page you specified with typoscript or the page where the plugin is included and add a new record. fill out the fields and save. repeat as often as required.

- you can now view your page.

- you may want to alter the two template files according to your wishes.

- formfields are identified by their name attribute, the plugin will create a marker for each form-field, this is devised from the name attribute. All markers are all upper-case (if you form field has the name-attribute “name” a marker named ###NAME### will be created for use in your email.html template)

- all subscriptions are stored in the database, they are accesible with the backend module Web/ECV-Subscriptions)

Known problems¶

• there are no implemented email functions for now. This extension in its actual state is pretty useless for non-programmers.
• No form-validation is implemented. In fact, there is virtually no Error-Handling at all!

To-Do list¶

• email-function
• some nice form handling

Way better backend module
