Screenshots¶

Some screenshots that show you the output of the extension (configurable by CSS):

Installation¶

• Get the extension ke_yac from the extension repository and install it.
• Include the static typoscript code from the extension(“Edit whole template record” > “Include static (from extensions)” > “Show Calendar (ke_yac)”)
• Insert the plugin
• Edit the plugin settings (see detailed information in “Configuration”).
• You have to create events and event categories in a sysfolder. After creating this folder, go there and choose “Create new record”. Choose “Calendar Category” and “Calendar date” for creating your data.For creating the categories, there are some default category icons in the subfolder “pi1/images”. The colors used in this images are corresponding to the colors used in the default stylesheet.
• In the plugin, set the “Startingpoint” to the created sysfolder(s) where your data is stored in.

Configuration¶

Configuration can either be done by flexforms in the plugin itself or in TYPOScript setup. If a value is set in both places, the flexform value overrides the TYPOScript setting.

GoogleMaps as popup¶

If you don't want the map to be rendere inline in singleview, there is a simple way to just render a link that opens the map in a new window:

Install the EXT “ke_yac_googlemaps” from TER and clear the page cache. The changes will take part immediately. No further configuration necessary.
