TYPO3 13.4: Using site sets the content of some extensions ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript is not loaded
0%
Description
In my installation, which is using site sets, the file ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript of some Extensions gets loaded and of some other extensions it gets ignored
So I am wondering if maybe for some reason the site set is unsetting the TypoScript from ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript in some cases but not others, maybe regarding loading order
For example causing this problem: https://github.com/krausandre/wsm-form-spamshield/issues/14
It seems like the loading order is affecting weither or not the `ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript` of a certain extension is loaded or not.
After doing an composer req or composer remove the `ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript` of an extension which was loaded before suddenly disappears or vice-versa.

Hey Lina,
thanks for you report!
Site sets do not load any ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript files, by design, as we strive for zero global TypoScript.
(Are you sure it is loaded for some? I guess they probably include that typoscript via other API as well then…)
See following change for the motivation: https://review.typo3.org/c/Packages/TYPO3.CMS/+/83722
If someone really really needs global typoscript in sets, than that's doable via ExtensionManagementUtility::addTypoScriptSetup(), see for an example were we had to revert to that because of EXT:form as well:
https://review.typo3.org/c/Packages/TYPO3.CMS/+/86413/7/typo3/sysext/form/ext_localconf.php
Although again: It is not suggested to add global TypoScript:
Whenever possible, please provide the TypoScript as a set to make it dependable by other sets.
In case someone needs global TypoScript for legacy sys_template users only, thenExtensionManagementUtility::addTypoScriptSetup(content: …, includeInSiteSets: false) is the better option.
That allows to provide global TypoScript for sys_template records, but allows to make the TypoScript available as set for set users.

`ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript` is widely used by extensions extending the form backend module, i.e. by loading
`
module.tx_form {
settings.yamlConfigurations {
1678469420 = EXT:wsm_form_spamshield/Configuration/Yaml/BaseSetup.yaml
}
view {
partialRootPaths {
1678469420 = EXT:wsm_form_spamshield/Resources/Private/Frontend/Partials/Forms/
}
}
}
`
Was there a breaking change stating that `ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript` if so I missed that one. We definately have to update the docs as currently they state that `ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript` is loaded globally not buts and ifs.
Also I think there is a way needed to configure form without having to use TypoScript but that is another matter.
