如何在Typo3 6.2.X后端中创建自定义“新内容元素”？

Question

I'm new to Typo3 and need guidance. Is it possible to clone and modify the existing "New Content Element", such that I could add custom input variables to add new records. My intention is to have the following fields as input layout: 1. Title 2. Sub-title 3. Picture upload (optional) or URL to picture 4. Description.

so what could be the best approach to do this (I'm using v 6.2.11)? Looking forward to suggestion and working examples. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Here: How to quickly create custom content elements in TYPO3 6.x - you'll find full description. It's popular question/answer here on StackOverflow, so there's no reason to copy it to new answer.

Answer 2

There is also the FluidTYPO3-framework . It is a very flexible way to create new content elements, but not as flexible as the approach described in biesiors answer.

To create new content elements, you would need to install the extensions flux and fluidcontent , and then create a provider extension (providing new content elements) yourself. In that extension, you create one fluid template for each new content element. It consists of

• A form to configure the content element
• A preview of the element in the backend
• A rendering definition for the frontend
• Some supporting stuff, eg language labels.

All this works with the fluid engine, so you have to know how to use it.

Details on how to configure the provider extension can be found on the project home page .
