TYPO3 Core

Hi Florian,

did you try it with page type "external url"? This might be a short-term solution for you.

Thanks, I tried this. It's working so far :)

Hiho,

there is still no option (Typo3 6.2) to use an anchor while using "Shortcut". Using "Link to external URL" is not a real solution, since it is not dynamic.

Just adding a small field next to "Shortcut Target" where the user can add #anchor or something like that would be enough.

I've created a little extension to cure my own itch: https://github.com/smichaelsen/typo3-shortcut-params

Maybe that can help others with the same demand or can be the starting point to build it into the core.

+1

Workaround with external url is possible, but then no menu with active state can be renderd. please consider this to implement. maybe use code from https://github.com/smichaelsen/typo3-shortcut-params for it.

I just tried this ext and its working well. thanks!

Would be a nice addition.

Would definitely be a nice addition.

I agree: would be useful.

"Will meet again", did a search on google, and ups, I did need this 3 years ago and again now. Sadly still not implemented yet. And https://github.com/smichaelsen/typo3-shortcut-params is not working with TYPO3 9! So still +1

I was trying to create a shortcut to a content element and thought it might be sufficient to override the TCA of pages and update the database column pages.shortcut to VARCHAR(255):

my_extension/Configuration/TCA/Overrides/pages.php

<?php
defined('TYPO3_MODE') or die();

(function () {
    $GLOBALS['TCA']['pages']['columns']['shortcut']['config']['allowed'] = 'pages,tt_content';
})();

my_extension/ext_tables.sql

#
# Table structure for table 'pages'
#
CREATE TABLE `pages` (
    `shortcut` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
);

The result is a value like tt_content_1234 in the shortcut column.

I know: It's not a valid typolink parameter. But it's possible to use e.g. a ViewHelper that processes this value and replaces "tt_content_" with the PID of the content element followed by "#" (so that we get 12#1234 - means content element 1234 on page 12) which would be a valid typolink parameter.

Maybe that's helpful for someone out there...

Based on Markus comment, I kicckstart this extension: https://github.com/lochmueller/custom_shortcut
This allow pages (incl. migration wizard), tt_content and option for more thrid party records.

Regards,
Tim
