It is not recommended to use this extension alone, as it only provides a basic framework. In order to perform typification, an addition in a separate extension is required. Note This extension is currently in beta state - please notice that there might be changes to the structure Compatibility ------------- [](#compatibility) BranchVersionTYPO3PHPmain2.0.x-dev~v12 + ~v138.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 (depending on TYPO3)2^2, 2.0.x-dev~v12 + ~v138.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 (depending on TYPO3)1^1, 1.2.x-devv11 + ~v128.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 (depending on TYPO3)Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install with your flavour: - [TER](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/category_types/) - Extension Manager - composer We prefer composer installation: ``` composer require 'fgtclb/category-types':'^2' ``` Important `2.x.x` is still in development and not all academics extension are fully tested in v12 and v13, but can be installed in composer instances to use, test them. Testing and reporting are welcome. **Testing 2.x.x extension version in projects (composer mode)** It is already possible to use and test the `2.x` version in composer based instances, which is encouraged and feedback of issues not detected by us (or pull-requests). Your project should configure `minimum-stabilty: dev` and `prefer-stable` to allow requiring each extension but still use stable versions over development versions: ``` composer config minimum-stability "dev" \ && composer config "prefer-stable" true ``` and installed with: ``` composer require \ 'fgtclb/category-types':'2.*.*@dev' ``` Upgrade from `1.x` ------------------ [](#upgrade-from-1x) Upgrading from `1.x` to `2.x` includes breaking changes, which needs to be addressed manualy in case not automatic upgrade path is available. See the [UPGRADE.md](./UPGRADE.md) file for details. Credits ------- [](#credits) This extension was created by [FGTCLB GmbH](https://www.fgtclb.com/).
