[TYPO3-english] Re : Optimized tt_news usage?

[joel zimmerli]

Hi,
Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately, I think my initial question/explanation was not so explicit. Based on your both explanation I did not understand whether I need to define separate sysfolders (one for every section redactor) or not. In all these sysfolders, redactors will be able to define their own structure/categories.
If this is the right way, how it is possible to get on the homepage + all "general" pages a list of the latest 5-6 news comming from all these sysfolders?
Hope you can help me.
Regards,
BD

You don't need to use an extension for this. Just use page TSconfig for it. Add the following line to the page TSconfig of the news sysfolder(s):

TCAdefaults.tt_news {
    // Set the default category to cat with id 4
    // Make sure that the categoryfield is visible to the user,             // otherwise it won't be set
    category = 4
}

// Also handy:

// Single pid voor preview
// This enables previewing of news with the "save and preview" button.
tx_ttnews.singlePid = 38

// Clear cache of news overview and single view
// so newsitems will be visible in FE
TCEMAIN.clearCacheCmd = 33,38

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
