[TYPO3-ect] Template Structure

[Jochen Rieger]

Hi Jan-Hendrik @ others,

basically we are using a very similar structure. Directly under the root 
page there is a bunch of sysfolders grouped by the parent folder called 
'TS Templates'. This might explain it more easily:

- Project ROOTpage
-- TS Templates (sysfolder)
--- menus (sysfolder)
--- cObjects (sysfolder)
--- extensions (sysfolder)
--- functions (sysfolder)
-- Main Page 1
-- Main Page 2
--- Subpage 2.1
--- Suvpage 2.2

etc.

So, there is the main template in the root page that mainly includes all 
the static and basis templates. Directly in 'TS Templates' you will find 
two TS templates called 'PAGE' and 'CONFIG' where of cause all page and 
config setup and constants are stored.

The other folders I think are self explaining. In 'menus' are GMENU and 
TMENU templates as well es lib.naviRootline, lib.naviMeta and lib.naviLang.

In 'cObjects' are stored the modifications in tt_contens and cObjects in 
general, for example to make the sitemap accessible etc.

'extensions' contains all the templates for plugin configuration.

And all other TS code that can be grouped together you will find in 
'functions'. Like lib.mediapics for things like

file.import = uploads/media/
file.import.data = levelmedia: 1, slide

etc.

Everything is properly set up with constants so that our admins can 
easily build up a new site mainly just by choosing and adjusting options 
in the constant editor. This comes in very handy when somebody that is 
not too much into TypoScript now is able to set up a fully accessible 
GMENU or TMENU just by setting up color, font, font-size, rollover state 
etc. in the constant editor.

Kind regards,
Jochen
