TYPO3 Extension dragon\_drop
============================

[](#typo3-extension-dragon_drop)

This extension provides fluid viewhelpers to add copy/paste functionality to EXT:mask backend templates.

CopyRecord/CutRecord ViewHelper
-------------------------------

[](#copyrecordcutrecord-viewhelper)

These two viewhelpers can be used within backend templates to provide "copy CE" and "cut CE" links:

```

    {row.header}

```

PasteLink ViewHelper
--------------------

[](#pastelink-viewhelper)

This viewhelper can be used within backend templates to provide a paste link for "clipped" CEs within container elements.

```

                {item.header} (id={item.uid})

```

This'll render an extra paste button into the accordion element:

[![page module](Documentation/Images/page-module.png)](Documentation/Images/page-module.png)

These are the attributes

- `target` which needs to be set to a array representing the target record. Currently only the array key `pid` is being used internally.
- `override` which contains the field modifications the newly created record will be updated with. For EXT:mask containers that's at least colPos=999 and the "parent field".

This extension comes with a DataHandler hook that updates the "children count" field of the container after attaching the copied CE to it. The name of said "children count" will be derived from TCA.

### Compatibility with EXT:mask

[](#compatibility-with-extmask)

In order to make this work with EXT:mask you need to make sure that the "parent field" is present in TCA. Please check the configuration module in the backend.

If it's not present (yet) you need to provide it yourself, see [github.com/Gernott/mask/issues/389](https://github.com/Gernott/mask/issues/389) for details.

### Prevent hidden records

[](#prevent-hidden-records)

In case you don't want the paste record to be hidden, you can override the `hidden` property with 0 via the `override` attribute, e.g.

```

```

### Allowed CTypes

[](#allowed-ctypes)

To prevent certain CTypes to be pasted into your mask element you can specify the `allowed` attribute:

```

```

### Customize button text

[](#customize-button-text)

In case you don't want the button text to be that paste icon, you can set a different button text:

```

    Paste here

```
