TYPO3 Core

I have the same problem.
This problem is also discussed in this thread:
http://lists.typo3.org/pipermail/typo3-english/2009-May/061076.html

Summary of the thread:
The problem is only in the module web>view.

Viewing a page in the FE works correctly.
Hiding/showing there works correctly for pages and content-elements (after you pressed it twice(!); another bug, not to be solved here).

In the BE-module there are two cases:
- If I choose a page in the tree (e.g. the start-page), the refresh-button
does not have any effect (also if I press it twice).
It works neither for pages nor for content-elements.
- If I choose the globe (which then shows me the start-page), the
refresh-button works as in the frontend: I have to click it twice, but then
hiding/showing pages and content-elements works.
(If I then click on the page/another page in the tree, I again see everything.)

The problem exists for admin- and non-admin-users.

It does not matter, if the admin-panel is visible or hidden.

please test the patches as i'm not shure about possible sideeffects

The final patch removes "ADMCMD_view" from tslib_fe entirely.

"ADMCMD_view" means that the page is view from out of the Web->View (the View-Module does make an explicit redirect adding that parameter).
It is an indicator from where we are seeing a page and can't be used to determine what we are seeing.

Subsequently the variable "fePreview = 2" also indicates to display some workspace information at the top, and can't be used to switch a preview-mode, and has been removed from the check.

Final patch works for me regarding the differences in Web-Module "View" and page-tree "View" (PHP 5.2, T3 4.3.2, see http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=13894).

But: is it a correct behaviour when previewing a hidden page, that all other hidden pages on the same level are shown in the menu too? When previewing a non-hidden page the hidden pages do not show up in menus (which is what I would expect for previewing in general).

Attached an updated patch by Steffen Ritter.

Typo3 4.6.0 also still shows all elements (hidden/timed/unused etc) in the View module, both in the live and custom workspaces.

Still happening on 4.7.2.
At least the patch still works.

It has been three years (!) and only a handful of people are bothered by this?

As TYPO3 CMS 4.7 gets only security fixes, does this issue exists with TYPO3 CMS 6.1?

Problem still exists on TYPO3 6.1.5

My Configuration for the Backenduser:

admPanel.override {
preview = 1
preview.simulateUserGroup = 11
preview.showHiddenPages = 0
preview.showHiddenRecords = 0
}

admPanel {
enable {
preview = 1
preview.simulateUserGroup = 11
preview.showHiddenPages = 0
preview.showHiddenRecords = 0
}
hide = 1
}

=> no effect; hidden Content is still visible

This problem comes with TYPO3 4.2.3. Following line:

$this->sys_page->versioningPreview = $this->fePreview ? TRUE : FALSE;

was changed to:

$this->sys_page->versioningPreview = ($this->fePreview===2 || intval($this->workspacePreview) || t3lib_div::_GP('ADMCMD_view')) ? TRUE : FALSE;

Since years and today some GET-Parameters will be added to the URL of the iFrame in view-module. One of them is: &ADMCMD_view=1

With the change in TYPO3 4.2.3 $this->sys_page->versioningPreview is TRUE now.

In enableFields we have these lines:

if (!$this->versioningPreview || !$ctrl['versioningWS'] || $noVersionPreview) {
    if ($ctrl['enablecolumns']['disabled'] && !$show_hidden && !$ignore_array['disabled']) {

As versioningPreview is TRUE now the variable $show_hidden was not processed anymore and that's why hidden records are shown in view module.

Hi,

is it a bug or a feature?

This changed behaviour leads back until 4.2 and was then considered as a bug (6 years ago). In these 6 years many TYPO3 users, as some customers and myself, considered it as a feature ... to be able to preview hidden records, that a currently edited, but not published yet.

To be honest ... I am in favor of reverting the patch an reactivating the feature.

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,

if I understand it right you are still able to preview hidden records by activating that feature in the AdminPanel.
