[Typo3] Last update extension - how to display author

[Peter Kindström]

Hi Jody

This is the TS code I use for my TemplaVoila site. Put it in Web
-> Template -> root page -> Info/Modify -> Setup:

# Last update
plugin.tx_lastupdate_pi1 {
  page_author = 1
  storage = [your SysFolder PID]
  author_email = author_date
  pid_item = 2
  sequence = 1
}

It is the "page_author = 1" that makes the extension get info
from the page headers author field instead of last update. And
it is the "author_email" that decides what is to be viewed. Use
one of these settings:
  author_date
  author_only
  date_only

(I have annotated this into the online documentation.)
