TYPO3-Addict is your TYPO3 Blog. Bringing you tips and tricks for developing websites with TYPO3. Here you'll find TypoScript snippets, TSConfig and configuration options for your own TYPO3 website.

The TYPO3 clipboard is a very handy tool but you rarely use all 4 of them. Also, when you logout the content is gone. Both these things can be fixed by a little TSConfig: ## Makes sure the clipboard doesn’t clear: options.saveClipboard = 1 ## Reduces the amount of clipboards from 4 to 1: options.clipboardNumberPads [...]

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!

In most cases I don’t use some tt_content fields, so it would be nice to don’t see them at all. Also for other backend users less is more (easy).  So let’s clean them up!

Sometimes you need to make the TYPO3 BE as clean and empty as posible for other (read: less techical) users. In that case it can be usefull to remove non-used content columns. Here how to: Copy Paste this in your Page TSConfig TCEFORM.tt_content.colPos { altLabels { 1 = Left 0 = Normal 2 = Right [...]
