FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

TYPO3 Extension: PageTree Permissions Highlight

Visual highlighting of pages in the TYPO3 backend page tree where the current user has content editing permissions.

Features

Visual Feedback: Highlights pages with a customizable background color where the user has content editing rights
Filter Toggle: Dropdown menu item "Editable pages only" in the page tree to filter down to editable pages only, with bridge nodes keeping the tree structure intact
Localized: Full English and German translations, respects TYPO3 backend language setting
Permission-Aware: Only shows highlights based on actual user permissions
Admin-Optimized: Skips highlighting for admin users (who have all permissions anyway)
Configurable: Customize the highlight color through extension configuration
Lightweight: Minimal performance impact using TYPO3's event system

Why This Extension?

In large TYPO3 installations with complex permission structures, editors often struggle to identify which pages they can actually edit. This extension provides instant visual feedback in the page tree, making it immediately clear where users have content editing permissions.

Installation

Via Composer (recommended)

Activation

After installation, activate the extension in the Extension Manager or via CLI:

Configuration

The extension can be configured in the Extension Configuration:

Go to Admin Tools > Settings > Extension Configuration
Select pagetree_permissions_highlight
Configure the following options:

Option	Type	Default	Description
`highlightColor`	string	`rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.1)`	Background color for pages where the user has content editing permissions. Accepts any valid CSS color value (hex, rgb, rgba, named colors).

Example Configuration

Usage

Once installed and activated, the extension works automatically:

Log in to the TYPO3 backend as a non-admin user
Open the page tree
Pages where you have content editing permissions are highlighted with the configured color
Admin users see no highlighting (as they have permissions everywhere)

Technical Details

Requirements

TYPO3 12.4 or higher
PHP 8.1 or higher

How It Works

The extension uses TYPO3's PSR-14 event system:

Listens to AfterPageTreeItemsPreparedEvent
Checks each page for Permission::CONTENT_EDIT rights
Applies background color to permitted pages
Skips processing for admin users
