TYPO3: A language menu

Here’s a snippet for a nice language menu…

temp.languagemenu = COA
temp.languagemenu.wrap = <div id="language"> | </div>
temp.languagemenu.10 = HMENU
temp.languagemenu.10 {
special=language
special.value = 0,1,2,3
1 = TMENU
1 {
wrap = <ul>|</ul>
NO = 1
NO {
stdWrap.cObject = TEXT
stdWrap.cObject {
value = Default Language (id=0) || Language with id=1 ||  Language with id=2 ||  Language with id=3
}
allWrap = <li>|</li>
}
ACT < .NO
ACT {
allWrap = <li class="ACT">|</li>
}
}
}

TYPO3: GMENU with a different image for each menu item

Some while ago I needed to make a GMENU with a different image for each menu item. This was tricky since normally I used CSS to include the image before or behind the menu. After a lot of thinking I realised TYPO3 had a BE field (even a tab!) I had never used; Page properties -> Resources.

So that was it… I included my images for each page here. But than what? How do I call them into my menu? It was quite easy after all… See my typoscript setup!

TYPO3: Wider text field in BE

I just found this line in the TSRef.. It’s not perfect but it makes your BE field like setup and constants in list mode wider. Just a small User TSConfig line so why not…

## Makes the BE fields wider
setup.override.edit_wideDocument = 1

See screenshots!
