[Typo3] Pass value via PHP to extension?

[Matthias Taugwalder]

So, finally I solved it...

The trick is that you have in typoscript to pass the parameters directly to
the extension.

i.e.

--- Typoscript code ---

plugin.<the_prefixId_of_your_extension> {
   key1 = value1
}


Then you can access the parameters in your extension as follows:

...

	function main($content, $conf)
	{
		$this->conf = $conf;
		$this->pi_setPiVarDefaults();
		$this->pi_loadLL();

		$content = "The value of key1 is" . $conf['key1'];

		return $this->pi_wrapInBaseClass($content);
	}

...




Best regards,

Matthias Taugwalder
