[TYPO3-dev] How to use an xml template on an extension instead of an hmtl?

[Juan Asencio]

Hello everybody,

I made an extension where I want to display an xml file. Looking at tt_news, the extension has a list.html and a list.xml file to display rss. According to the manual, one should specify on the template that the plugin should use xml.

I tried to do that in my extension but doesn't work. Any suggestions how to achieve that.

I have on my extension under Resources/Private/Templates/MyExtension/Show.html and Resources/Private/Templates/MyExtension/Show.xml

On my Template setup I have the following line:

# set the format
plugin.tx_myextension.settings.format = xml

But I still get an html file when I see the page.

I guess it might not be enough just to add the #set the format line on the template. But I can figure it out what else I need to do.

Any guidelines will much appreciated.

Have a nice weekend.

Juan.-
