Snippet Preview

Enable snippet preview on specific page types

By default, the snippet preview is only shown on pages with doktype 1 (Standard page) and 6 (Backend user section). You can add your own doktypes like the example below by adding a doktype to the $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['yoast_seo']['allowedDoktypes'] array in the ext_localconf.php of your own extension.

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['yoast_seo']['allowedDoktypes']['blog'] = 137;

The key can be any unique string. It is only used to identify the doktype as a developer. The value contains the numeric value of the doktype.

Disable snippet preview with PageTs

Sometimes only a check on doktype isn't enough for disabling the snippet preview. For example if you want to hide the snippet preview on detail pages of for example a news item, you need more than a check on a doktype. That is why you can also disable the snippet preview based on PageTs. Below is an example of how to how the snippet preview if the page is a subpage of page with id 4.

[4 in tree.rootLineParentIds]
    mod.web_SeoPlugin {
        disableSnippetPreview = 1
    }
[global]

Basic auth configuration

For environments which are protected by Basic auth, it's possible to set username and password through $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['yoast_seo']['previewSettings']['basicAuth']

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['yoast_seo']['previewSettings']['basicAuth'] = [
    'username' => 'authUsername',
    'password' => 'authPassword'
];
