Core Manual
This document is a Core Manual. Core Manuals address the built in functionality of TYPO3 and are designed to provide the reader with in-depth information. Each Core Manual addresses a particular process or function and how it is implemented within the TYPO3 source code. These may include information on available APIs, specific configuration options, etc.
Core Manuals are written as reference manuals. The reader should rely on the Table of Contents to identify what particular section will best address the task at hand.
TypoScript can be used to create templates for the TYPO3 frontend, but also to configure the TYPO3 backend. In this case, it is called "TSconfig". TSconfig is divided into configuration for pages ("Page TSconfig") and configuration for users and groups ("User TSconfig"). Each variant is further detailed in its own chapter. TSconfig offers vast possibilities of customizing the TYPO3 backend.
For details about the nature of TypoScript as a syntax, please read the document "TypoScript Syntax & In-depth Study".
This version of the TSconfig Reference was updated for TYPO3 version 4.5.
For TYPO3 4.5 some settings concerning TCEforms were added. FlexForms are editable via TSconfig and group access lists now. TYPO3 4.5 comes with a new task center - the related documentation was added. Some checkboxes at the bottom of modules can be hidden now. This applies to the options at the bottom of the list and the file list module as well as to the checkbox "Show secondary options". Another important change is that beginning with TYPO3 4.5 the word "shortcut" is only used for a shortcut to another page and no longer where "bookmark" was meant. Therefore the related options were renamed. So for example "enableShortcuts" is now called "enableBookmarks" and so on.
All screenshots were refreshed.
The description of some properties has been added or updated.
