[TYPO3-timtab] Timtab tab in the tt_news

[Vikram Mandal]

Thanks Ingo.

I got it going.

Added the following in ext_tables.php (I have used id 4 for my new type)

  // add the new type
$TCA['tt_news']['columns']['type']['config']['items'][] =
Array('LLL:EXT:fivee_publications/locallang_db.xml:tt_news.type.I.fivee_publications',
4);

$TCA['tt_news']['interface']['showRecordFieldList'] .=
',tx_fiveepublications_publisher_location,
tx_fiveepublications_year_publication,
tx_fiveepublications_number_of_pages';


   // list of fields to show when type is 4
$TCA['tt_news']['types']['4'] = array();
$TCA['tt_news']['types']['4'] = Array('showitem' =>
$TCA['tt_news']['types']['0']['showitem'].',--div--;Publication,tx_fiveepublications_publisher_location,
tx_fiveepublications_year_publication,
tx_fiveepublications_number_of_pages;;;;');


Thanks,
Vikram
