[![Frontend Edit](./Documentation/Images/screenshot.jpg)](./Documentation/Images/screenshot.jpg) Note **Delineation and classification**: This is **not** a further development of the "original" extension [frontend\_editing](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/frontend_editing). It is similar in some ways to the realisation of the [feedit](https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/feedit) extension. This extension is an independent implementation with a different approach. See the [Delineation](https://docs.typo3.org/p/xima/xima-typo3-frontend-edit/main/en-us/Delineation/Index.html) page in the documentation for a detailed comparison with related extensions like [visual\_editor](https://github.com/FriendsOfTYPO3/visual_editor) and [content\_preview](https://github.com/T3-UX/content_preview). The extension has been developed to provide a simple and lightweight solution to easily start the editing of content elements from the frontend and thus reduce the gap between frontend and backend. Therefore, a simple javascript is injected into the frontend, which generates action links to the TYPO3 backend with the corresponding edit views. ✨ Features ---------- [](#-features) - **Edit Menu** - Quick access to edit, hide, delete, and move content elements - **Toolbar** - Page-level actions and toggle for frontend editing - **Site Settings** - Per-site configuration via YAML - **PSR-14 Events** - Customize menus with custom actions - **Data ViewHelper** - Add edit links for related records (e.g., news items) - **Dark/Light Mode** - Automatic or manual color scheme selection - **Configurable Position** - 12 toolbar positions available - **Save & Close** - Quick return to frontend after editing - **UserTSconfig** - Disable frontend editing per user or user group Note **New in v2.2.0 — Contextual Editing Sidebar** *(experimental)* Edit content elements and page properties directly in a sidebar panel without leaving the frontend. Uses TYPO3 v14.2's `record_edit_contextual` route for a streamlined editing experience.
