There is no need for editors to select a `backend_layout`. In fact it is recommended to hide the fields `backend_layout` and `backend_layout_next_level` from editors. Find more about how we use this extension at b13, including examples, [in this blog post.](https://b13.com/blog/simplify-your-typo3-page-configuration) Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install this extension via `composer req b13/doktypemapper` and activate the extension in the Extension Manager of your TYPO3 installation. Once installed, add a new configuration `doktype` to your Backend-Layouts. Configure your Backend-Layouts ------------------------------ [](#configure-your-backend-layouts) Simply add the new configuration `doktype` to your Backend-Layout, e.g. ``` mod.web_layout.BackendLayouts.MyPage.config.backend_layout.doktype = 144 ``` This will automatically set the `backend_layout` to `pagets__MyPage` when a page has doktype `144`. ### Hide fields from editors [](#hide-fields-from-editors) It is recommended to hide the fields `backend_layout` and `backend_layout_next_level` from page properties (the value is set automatically) using PageTsConfig: ``` TCEFORM.pages.backend_layout.disabled = 1 TCEFORM.pages.backend_layout_next_level.disabled = 1 ``` ### Note [](#note) This extension comes with a default empty backend\_layout configuration (see `Configuration/Sets/Doktypemapper/page.tsconfig`) for TYPO3's default "empty" page types (like Shortcut, External Link, etc.) to ensure valid database entries for every page type (even the ones without any content).
