[TYPO3-ttnews] HTML import in tt_news db

[David Zschille]

Hi Martin,

thanks for your answer. I think your explaination is not correct.
Yes, the uploaded files are stored in tt_news with out the path. But i
don´t have to upload them to the folder "uploads/tx_ttnews". I can choose
the upload folder in the Typo3 upload manager, like in every content
element where the manager is available.

I think in which folder the uploaded file is stored, is written in the
table "sys_refindex" in the field "ref_string".

I have two Typo3 installations and the folders "uploads/tx_ttnews" are
empty. I had made the news "manual", not with a script.

So i think i have made an error somewhere else.

Do you have an idea to the problem with the languages?


Best regards,
David

The import works well...only two cases which are not solved yet: 1. -
when you have images or files in your messages, they are not shown 2. -
when you have different languages you can see only the messages in your
default language
>> For case one i found a "workaround": i made an "dummy" news message and
attached to it the images and files which were needed in the imported
messages. I left the message "hidden" and saved it. Now the imges and
files appear in the other messages. Four of this dummy messages where
enough for me to attach the 40 files i needed :)
