A weblog (mostly) about PHP and TYPO3 development

TYPO3 comes with a lot of default content elements types. When creating a content element using the Page module you can choose which type to add using the new content element wizard. The content element types are arranged in tabs. You can rearrange the content types and tabs using Page TS config.

For example if you want the content element type html in the first tab, you can do the following:

mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.common {
  elements {
    html < mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.special.elements.html
  }
  show := addToList(html)
}

You can add a tab and fill it with an existing element like this:

mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.myTab {
  header = My tab
  elements {
    html < mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.special.elements.html
  }
  show = html
}

To remove the existing type from its original tab, add:

mod.wizards.newContentElement.wizardItems.special.show := removeFromList(html)
