TYPO3 Extension rte\_ckeditor\_dl
=================================

[](#typo3-extension-rte_ckeditor_dl)

A simple wrapper extension to [ckeditor5-definitionlist](https://github.com/kitzberger/ckeditor5-definitionlist) into TYPO3's default editor ckeditor 5.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

- `composer require kitzberger/rte-ckeditor-dl`
- Install extension via extension manager in the backend

### Load PageTS

[](#load-pagets)

Simply load the RTE configuration `default+dl` provided by this extension via PageTS to the root page of your page tree. This'll set the default RTE configuration enhanced by this plugin as a default for all RTEs in that page tree.

### Custom RTE config

[](#custom-rte-config)

Alternatively to enabling the `default+dl` configuration you can create your own RTE configuration and simply import the yaml file as described below.

#### EXT:custom/ext\_localconf.php

[](#extcustomext_localconfphp)

```
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['RTE']['Presets']['custom'] = 'EXT:custom/Configuration/RTE/Default.yaml';
```

#### EXT:custom/Configuration/RTE/Default.yaml

[](#extcustomconfigurationrtedefaultyaml)

```
# Load default processing options + the dl plugin
imports:
  - { resource: "EXT:rte_ckeditor/Configuration/RTE/Processing.yaml" }
  - { resource: "EXT:rte_ckeditor/Configuration/RTE/Editor/Base.yaml" }
  - { resource: "EXT:rte_ckeditor/Configuration/RTE/Editor/Plugins.yaml" }
  - { resource: "EXT:rte_ckeditor_dl/Configuration/RTE/Plugin.yaml" }
```

#### Add insert button

[](#add-insert-button)

To add the 'insert definition list' button to the editors toolbar:

```
editor:
  config:
    toolbar:
      items:
        ...
        - definitionList
        ...
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

By clicking that 'insert definition list' button a new `` is being inserted into the RTE. This `` contains a single pair of dummy `` and `` tags.

Keyboard bindings:

- Transform a `` into a `` and vice versa by pressing "tab" resp. "shift+tab".
- Pressing "enter" at the end of a `` creates a new ``.
- Pressing "enter" at the end of a `` creates a new ``.
- Pressing "del" or "backspace" on an empty ``/`` removes it.
- Pressing "arrow down" at the end of the last `` inserts a new `` after the ``
- Pressing "arrow up" at the beginning of the first `` inserts a new `` before the ``

When having the indent/outdent buttons present in the RTE toolbar they can be used as well for transforming the `` and `` tags.

Trouble shooting
----------------

[](#trouble-shooting)

Weird `` tags show up in markup like this here?

```

	Foo

		Bar

	Fuu

		Bat

	&nbsp;

```

Tweak TYPO3's pareFunc\_RTE a little to get rid of that:

```
lib.parseFunc_RTE.externalBlocks.dl.callRecursive >
lib.parseFunc_RTE.externalBlocks.dl.stdWrap.parseFunc =< lib.parseFunc

```

40135.8k](/packages/in2code-in2publish-core)[causal/image_autoresize

Simplify the way your editors may upload their images: no complex local procedure needed, let TYPO3 automatically resize down their huge images/pictures on-the-fly during upload (or using a command for batch processing) and according to your own business rules (directory/groups). This will highly reduce the footprint on your server and speed-up response time if lots of images are rendered (e.g., in a gallery). Features an EXIF/IPTC extractor to ensure metadata may be used by the FAL indexer even if not preserved upon resizing.

19455.6k](/packages/causal-image-autoresize)[causal/extractor

This extension detects and extracts metadata (EXIF / IPTC / XMP / ...) from potentially thousand different file types (such as MS Word/Powerpoint/Excel documents, PDF and images) and bring them automatically and natively to TYPO3 when uploading assets. Works with built-in PHP functions but takes advantage of Apache Tika and other external tools for enhanced metadata extraction.
