tt_news Marker¶

What does it do?¶

• The extension tt_news Marker extends tt_news for using
  • user defined markers and
  • system defined markers like for a news URL or item counters and
  • the new codes LIST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS and LATEST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS
• Every self defined marker has the std_wrap property.
• If you use the extension tt_news select configuration (extkey: ttnews_selectconf) too, you can filter your news items by fe_users for example.

What do you need?¶

• The extension tt_news.
• The extension ttnews_selectconf, if you want to filter news items by SQL properties.
• A little bit experience with TypoScript.

Extension Manager¶

Open the extension manager, download the extension tt_news Marker (extkey: ttnews_marker) and install it.

Include Static Template¶

Include the static template from the extension in the template of that page where you are using tt_news plugins. This is the root page probably.

System Defined Markers¶

There are some so called system defined markers in the default mode.

They have the following meaning:

Registers¶

The values of the system defined markers are stored in registers. The name of the register is the name of the system defined marker in upper case.

You can use the value of every system defined marker in your TypoScript after ttnews_marker is used.

You see the HTML output on the left hand in the illustration below.You see the generated HTML code on the right hand in the illustration below.

Output only if there is an item at least¶

Illustration 10: tt_news code LIST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS

We want an output only, if there is a tt_news item at least. We have to change the tt_news property code

• from LIST
• to LIST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS.

See the typoscript snippet below:

plugin.tt_news {

code = LIST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS

}

This is possible too:

plugin.tt_news {

code = LATEST_ONLY_WITH_ITEMS

}

  href {
    additionalParams = &type=0
