  • 06:43:31 <Xatenev> Heya
  • 06:43:32 <Xatenev> fast question
  • 06:43:53 <Xatenev> additionalAttributes="{data-content: '<f:translate key="whatever" />'
  • 06:44:06 <Xatenev> How do I escape quotes
  • 06:44:14 <Xatenev> cause otherwise I need 3 different quotes to use a translation here
  • 06:44:32 <Xatenev> these " for the additional Attributes wrap, these ' for data Content and now i have to quote f translate key
  • 06:44:36 <Xatenev> how can I escape those? :D
  • 09:27:22 <trendzetter> hi, I am setting up an environment for fluidtypo3. I downloaded 6.2.9 and the latest extensions in ter (also tried the fuildtypo3 distribution)
  • 09:29:35 <trendzetter> The section Main is not displayed on page, only the title.
  • 09:31:00 <cedricziel> are you talking about page templates?
  • 09:31:04 <trendzetter> I have been wrestling with this for days. Can someone give me some hints on getting started with the new ways?
  • 09:31:27 <trendzetter> I tried adding a example fluid content element
  • 09:31:57 <trendzetter> 't is included in the distribution and with the provider extension if created by the builder
  • 09:32:21 <cedricziel> once gain then: have you set up any kind of page template?
  • 09:33:05 <trendzetter> yes, I have "Standard fluid page"
  • 09:33:24 <cedricziel> with fluidpages then?
  • 09:33:29 <trendzetter> as page layout
  • 09:33:39 <cedricziel> do standard content elements work?
  • 09:33:53 <trendzetter> and the template is empty with a provider extension in the includes
  • 09:34:44 <trendzetter> standard content is displayed normally
  • 09:35:20 <trendzetter> but the fluid content only has the title
  • 09:37:43 <cedricziel> well, as i have no introspection into your code; can you please cross check with this example extension? https://github.com/FluidTYPO3/fluidtypo3org
  • 09:37:57 <trendzetter> it could be useful to know a working combination of versions of the cms and the extensions required to get fluid working. I suspect that I have an incompatebility.
  • 09:38:14 <trendzetter> OK. Thanks,/
  • 09:38:30 <trendzetter> I will download the version from github and give it a try
  • 09:38:45 <cedricziel> ter combinations with a recent 6.2 shouldnt have problems
  • 09:49:36 <trendzetter> I can add the content and the different types of pages in the backend. The pagelayout seems to be correct but the content elements are not displayed
  • 09:50:53 <cedricziel> mind showing the template?
  • 09:51:27 <trendzetter> i didn't even change anything. just downloaded it from github
  • 09:53:56 <trendzetter> I just added the contributers template to a default front page from fluidtypo3org
  • 09:54:35 <trendzetter> http://contact.sbat.be/index.php?id=3
  • 09:58:35 <trendzetter> so basicly I have a plain 6.2.9 install without errors. the fluid extensions from ter and the fluidtypo3org provider extension delivering page template and content element template. for some reason the main section of the fluid content elements is missing
  • 10:07:00 <NamelessCoder> trendzetter the fluidcontent elements included in the fluidtypo3org extension are written specifically for fluidtypo3.org and depend on typoscript as well as local folders - empty output is to be expected. You should try creating your own element or use some of the collections out there.
  • 10:10:08 <trendzetter> I also used the example FCE saying <f:section name="Main">
  • 10:10:08 <trendzetter> <h3>I am a content element!</h3>
  • 10:10:08 <trendzetter> <p>
  • 10:10:08 <trendzetter> My template file is EXT:sbat/Resources/Private/Content/Example.html.
  • 10:10:08 <trendzetter> </p>
  • 10:10:09 <trendzetter> </f:section>
  • 10:10:18 <trendzetter> It is also empty
  • 10:11:20 <NamelessCoder> did you load the static typoscript belonging to the provider extension?
  • 10:11:50 <trendzetter> I included the provider extension in includes of my root template
  • 10:12:36 <NamelessCoder> and are you using css_styled_content or fluidcontent_core? If it's the former, you have to load that typoscript as well. If it's the latter, make sure you ran the update script via EM and that it wrote the typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php file
  • 10:12:59 <trendzetter> no css_styled_content, it is uninstalled.
  • 10:13:40 <NamelessCoder> and if you are *completely* new at this and the site is still blank, you may want to try installing the "site" distribution from TER. It creates pages and setup for you so you eliminate potential errors in that area.
  • 10:14:12 <NamelessCoder> there is a checklist with some 10+ items that all have to be done correctly for it to work - EXT:site automates that part.
  • 10:14:20 <trendzetter> I started first from the site distribution
  • 10:15:19 <trendzetter> I already have a fluid site running on 6.1 so it's not completely new but I got it from a typo3 with all extensions included (the bootstrap demo from a year ago or something)
  • 10:15:39 <trendzetter> I cannot find the typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php
  • 10:15:50 <NamelessCoder> I assume you use fluidcontent_core since you don't use css_styled_content
  • 10:16:24 <trendzetter> fluidcontent_core 1.0.2
  • 10:16:41 <NamelessCoder> then either use EM to run the update script for fluidcontent_core or manually copy the file into place from Resources/Private/Configuration/AdditionalConfiguration.php
  • 10:17:34 <trendzetter> WOOAW!
  • 10:17:37 <trendzetter> thanks!
  • 10:17:40 <NamelessCoder> ;)
  • 10:17:41 <trendzetter> that did it
  • 10:17:52 <NamelessCoder> that's item #8 on the list hehe
  • 10:18:19 <trendzetter> it seems that was skipped by the site distribution because it gave some error about vhs installing multiple versions
  • 10:18:23 <NamelessCoder> it SUCKS that it has to be copied this way but, sadly, there is no way around it. It's *extremely* legacy but required to be so
  • 10:19:14 <NamelessCoder> ah yes... there is a dependency conflict somewhere I think... VHS is available in a too-recent version not supported by some exts (well, it is, but the metadata says no)
  • 10:20:06 <trendzetter> I think the underlying issue might be ter having difficulties with certain combinations in dependncies
  • 10:20:38 <trendzetter> thanks again! I am getting started now. you guys are the best
  • 10:21:10 <NamelessCoder> thanks - have fun!
