[Typo3] Insert a Frontend Plugin in a template using typoscript?

Hi Ronald,

This is what I do.

temp.someContent < styles.content.get
temp.someContent.select.pidInList = 239

#239 is the ID of the page on which I have my plugin(s), in this case in the
"NORMAL" column (I am not using TemplaVoila). So, you could create a page,
put your plugin on it and note the ID.

Then in my template I output temp.someContent to one of my markers.

myTemplate.subparts.SOMEPART < temp.someContent

In your case, you can do

page.10 < temp.someContent

I'm sure there's lots of other ways of doing it, but that's what I do.
Advantage is my plugin(s) can be controlled by editors or others in the
usual way without modifying Typoscript.

Steven
