It adds an edit button to every content element, a page-level toolbar, and optional inline editing and drag & drop, all rendered directly on top of the live frontend. [![Frontend Edit](./Documentation/Images/screenshot.png)](./Documentation/Images/screenshot.png) Note **Why?** TYPO3 editors constantly switch between frontend and backend just to find the right content element. This extension removes that context switch: the editing actions appear exactly where the content is displayed. ✨ Features ---------- [](#-features) - [Edit Menu](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Usage/EditMenu.html): edit, hide, delete, move, info and history per content element, with a confirmation dialog before deleting - [Toolbar](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Usage/Toolbar.html): page-level actions and a toggle to switch frontend editing on and off - [Inline Editing](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Usage/InlineEditing.html) (experimental, opt-in): edit content and page properties in a panel next to the page, sidebar on TYPO3 v14.2+, slide-in modal on v13 - [New content](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Integration/ColumnTargets.html): insert buttons on hover and per column, opening TYPO3's native New Content Element Wizard - [Drag & Drop](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Usage/DragAndDrop.html) (experimental, opt-in): reorder elements within a column or move them into another column, incl. `EXT:container` - [Site Settings](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Configuration/SiteSettings.html): per-site configuration via YAML, appearance, toolbar position, and filters for pages, doktypes, CTypes and UIDs - [UserTSconfig](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Configuration/UserTSconfig.html): disable frontend editing per backend user or user group - [PSR-14 Events](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/DeveloperCorner/Events.html) & [ViewHelpers](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/DeveloperCorner/DataAttributes.html): add custom menu entries, attach data to elements, add edit links for related records 🔥 Installation -------------- [](#-installation) ### Requirements [](#requirements) - TYPO3 >= 13.4 - PHP 8.2+ See [Setup requirements & limits](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Configuration/SetupRequirementsAndLimits.html) for multi-domain setups, external caches (Varnish/CDN), the content element anchor pattern requirement (and the headless/SPA non-goal), and preview links. ### Supports [](#supports) **Version****TYPO3****PHP**2.x13-148.2-8.51.x11-138.1-8.5### Composer [](#composer) [![Packagist](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/b3399754b2bd4068a2cf1e99aba9f3eedbecf5cb9b2cb27b621dd7a94713433d/68747470733a2f2f696d672e736869656c64732e696f2f7061636b61676973742f762f78696d612f78696d612d7479706f332d66726f6e74656e642d656469743f6c6162656c3d76657273696f6e266c6f676f3d7061636b6167697374)](https://packagist.org/packages/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit)[![Packagist Downloads](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/f7dae45b98104367448ba164cd18b86003b8e6f8dd57f9cfda748504b730262a/68747470733a2f2f696d672e736869656c64732e696f2f7061636b61676973742f64742f78696d612f78696d612d7479706f332d66726f6e74656e642d656469743f636f6c6f723d627269676874677265656e)](https://packagist.org/packages/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit) ``` composer require xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit ``` ### TER [](#ter) [![TER version](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/1900b3583175915a31f77bdb4c6ca8c99ece7dab0e06128e2eb9b41035316645/68747470733a2f2f7479706f332d6261646765732e6465762f62616467652f78696d615f7479706f335f66726f6e74656e645f656469742f76657273696f6e2f736869656c64732e737667)](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/xima_typo3_frontend_edit)[![TER downloads](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/90fce0ac64a0aa370ab4c8ef6a5badcdfd04ea46bf5240974809fe2c3bc87bec/68747470733a2f2f7479706f332d6261646765732e6465762f62616467652f78696d615f7479706f335f66726f6e74656e645f656469742f646f776e6c6f6164732f736869656c64732e737667)](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/xima_typo3_frontend_edit) Download the zip file from [TYPO3 extension repository (TER)](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/xima_typo3_frontend_edit).
