Bug #84563
closed
Default file properties in sys_file_reference ignored
100%
Description
When a file reference is added without setting any properties and file original file properties are updated after that, the reference does not use them.
Steps to reproduce:
- Upload an image to fileadmin
- Create a file reference for that image in a content element without adding any data
- Update some file property, that could be overwritten in the reference (e.g alternative text)
- Check the frontend rendering of that image
Expected result:
The newly entered alternative text should be used for that reference because no other text was entered in the reference.
Current result:
There will ne no alternative text for that image.
The problem is, that there is an empty string written into the sys_file_reference table by default when adding a file without the property set. But TYPO3 needs this field to be NULL to use the default as override.
Possible solution:
When adding a reference for a file, check if the overridable fields for that image are empty. If so, set the sys_file_reference column to NULL instead of an empty string.

This should already be the case.
Did you use the default core content elements?
Do you have the override checkboxes when editing the sys_file_reference?

I have tested it on the current master with the default Text & Media content element.
The problem is, that when no default value exists, but placeholder is defined in TCA and empty, the checkbox get automatically checked. So the record will not use the default value, even if it is set afterwards.
I got a fix for that. After that fix, the editor has to opt-in the the checkbox, if he wants to override the value. Will pushing it to gerrit soon for further discussion.
