Story #82206: list module enhancements/bugfixes
Forward pages with defined doctype to list view
0%
Description
If a BE-user opens a page with doctype sysfolder in the page module, he can add content elements, which usually does not make sense. I made some small changes in typo3/sysext/cms/layout/db_layout.php.
It is possible to define doctypes who should be shown in list view.
mod.web_layout.forwardToListDoctype = 254,199,4
Or is there a better way to achieve this?

Maybe it's wise to ask the UX/UI team what's the best solution here?
TemplaVoilà displays a text that you try to open a (sys)folder with the page module and suggests to jump (with link) to the list module or edit the page properties.

this is already available for 254 doctype

The idea is to directly forward to listview. I think this would improve the usability.

right now we have a flash message suggesting to switch to the list view. So I agree it'd make sense to do that automatically for the user. In return though, there should be a flash message letting the user know about the automatic redirect and offering him a way to go back if needed/wanted.

I would suggest to directly switch without a question.
We don't need a Flash-MSG .. if it's wrong you will see
it (even without a flash-msg) and switch via the Modul-
Menu at the site.
So +1 from the UX perspective.

I've discovered that there is a third-party extension for that feature: autoswitchtolistview

Hey.
I'd postulate it would be unexpected for an editor if the backend switches main modules magically and I don't think that would be a great solution anymore nowadays.
We have quite a couple of messages editors can click on to switch views instead - in various places.
As such, I'll now go ahead to close this issue and hope that is ok for now.
In case anyone still thinks auto-switching main-modules is a good idea, this can be solved with extension as Riccardo stated already. I'm unsure about a core implementation here, though.
