Administration

  • Install these plugins first: static_info_tables , dam, dam_catedit
  • Then install: mm_bccmsbase IMPORTANT: Use always the latest version of BOTH plugins.In this library is 90% of the code form mm_dam_filelist
  • And after that install: mm_dam_filelist
  • Add the categories – VERY important. You need the categories. The plugin does not work without them.
  • Add the plugin in the BE
  • Add the available categories (screenshots)
  • For importing the autogenerated categories-menu add this to you TS- settings page.10.subparts.navi_dam_cat < plugin.tx_mmdamfilelist_pi1.catTree
  • If the category-Tree should not start with the root-element use this: plugin.tx_mmdamfilelist_pi1.catTree.startuid = 190 (instead of 190 use an ID out of your categories

((generated))

Very important: Add the STARTINGPOINT – which is MEDIA

img-23

If you want to overwrite the language-settings here you see a example how to do this:

plugin.tx_mmdamfilelist_pi1._LOCAL_LANG.de.pi_list_browseresults _displays = Bild ###FROM### von ###OUT_OF###

plugin.tx_mmdamfilelist_pi1._LOCAL_LANG.de.pi_list_browseresults _page = Bild(This examples shows you my settings for the single-image version...)

Configuration

As a first step – use the FlexForm interface.As the second step - please have a look at the TS-file in the plugins stats folder.Everything is template-based. So feel free to change the look an feel.

The TS-file is documented...

REALURL

Take the file typo3conf/ext/mm_dam_filelist/doc/realurl_sample.txt, cut out the “MM DAM Filelist” section and add those lines to you localconf.php. Don't forget to turn off the caching-function in the plugins flexform!!!

FAQ

Q: How can I translate DAM-Fields?

A: Have a look at the following example where “instructions” is the DAM-fieldname.

plugin.tx_mmdamfilelist_pi1._LOCAL_LANG.de {

instructions =Verwendung:

}

Known problems

Not so far.
