Integration in Typo3

Post by WebComPas »

Hello!

I have to integrate S9Y into an existing Typo3 website. Therefor I tried some possible solutions to make it work. At the moment Typo3 fetches the HTML output of S9Y and displays it. For the main page this works fine because Typo3 knows the URL of it.
But there is the problem. Typo3 doesn't know the other links' URL and so the links within S9Y don't work correctly. For solving this problem the URL is rewrited by mod_rewrite to the Typo3 PHP script. For working with these URLs within Typo3 it seems to be necessary that the links of S9Y are not like "index.php?/archives/2007/11.html" but like "index.php?type=archieves&year=2007&month=11".

Is it possible to change this or is there another possibility for integrating S9Y into Typo3?


Thank you!

Pascal

Hi!

I've been working for some time with Typo3, and I don't think there's a sexy way to integrate both systems. Their URL structure handling and general output/input handling is just too cumbersome to get together.

So I would really recommend to make the blog run on its own, indepedent from typo3 but with a template that looks like your usual page, if that's possible.

The only other way would be to write custom PHP code that allows s9y to use it's URLs, but sets the required Typo3 PHP variables properly. I haven't done this yet, so I don't know how to exactly achieve it.

OK, but I'd prefer a nicer solution if possible because it's for a customer.

Hi!

If you don't get it managed, I could offer a solution through my Company, Faktor E. There we do full commercial work and also have experience with T3.
