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 md_news_author

This extension is based on extbase & fluid and provides the famous extension ext:news of Georg Ringer (thanks a lot @georgringer !) with one or more authors. You can centrally manage authors and attach them to news records. The extensions comes with two plugins, one for listing all authors and one for the detail page of an author which also shows the news records of the selected author.

Requirements

Installation

Install the extension via Composer:

Configuration via Site Sets (recommended)

Site Sets are the preferred way to configure this extension in TYPO3 >= 13.4. Add the set to your site configuration in config/sites/<your-site>/config.yaml:

This automatically includes all necessary TypoScript. No manual TypoScript include is needed.

You can then configure all settings directly in the Site Management > Sites backend module under the Settings tab.

Configuration via classic TypoScript

Alternatively, include the static TypoScript manually:

Insert a paginated list of all authors.

Author detail page

Insert an author detail view. This page also lists all news records associated with the selected author.

Show author in ext:news view

Access the author properties in a news record with {newsItem.newsAuthor}. Since there can be more than one author attached to a news record, iterate over them:

Add a link to the author profile page (load the viewhelper namespace first: {namespace md=Mediadreams\MdNewsAuthor\ViewHelpers}):

Page TSconfig

To show only authors from a specific page in the Author tab of a news record:

Replace 1 with the UID of the sysfolder containing your author records.
