FAQ

Q: Will the content_blocks_reg_api be further developed for TYPO3 v12?

A: The predecessor content_blocks_reg_api, which was initially created in 2020, will not be further developed for TYPO3 v12. This system extension will replace it completely. Migration steps will be provided as soon as we will reach a stable development state.

This extension has been developed entirely from scratch and has, besides the initial concept, nothing to do with the content_blocks_reg_api. The goal was to create a system extension, which combines the best concepts from Content Blocks and the Mask extension.
