[TYPO3-mvc] extending news

[Henjo Hoeksma]

Hi Stefan,

yes, you can use class extension, i.e. your model extends the news model.
And yes, you should set up the class mapping within typoscript.

Look at some of the threads regarding single table inheritance, or at the
blog_example using the connection to the extbase models for users.

It's actually pretty straight forward. :-)

Kind regards,

Henjo

Problems are small because we learned how to deal with them.
