Create Print or Share Article Popups with TypoScript | ||
![]() The following TypoScript works pretty well if you have dedicated print and send to friend pages. However, if you have a dynamic print or email pages, this method isn’t so great. This method assumes you’re using TemplaVoila’s alternate templates for print. Hence the &print=1.
Call the following into your template via TypoScript via lib.printLinks to use it in your template. lib.print_url = TEXT lib.print_url { value = Print typolink { parameter = 261 640x480:status=1,menubar=1,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,location=1 - Print Story addQueryString = 1 addQueryString { method = GET } additionalParams = &print=1 } } lib.tip_url = TEXT lib.tip_url { value = Email typolink { parameter = 210 1000x600:status=1,menubar=1,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,location=1 - Email Story addQueryString = 0 addQueryString { method = GET } additionalParams.cObject = COA additionalParams.cObject { # This part generates the "tipUrl" parameter in the # correct format. (rawUrlEncoded) 10 = COA 10 { # This part adds the domain (baseUrl) to the link URL 10 = TEXT 10.data = TSFE:baseUrl # This part creates an URL pointing to the current page # including all parameters from the query string. 20 = TEXT 20.typolink.parameter.data = page:uid 20.typolink.addQueryString = 1 20.typolink.addQueryString.exclude = id 20.typolink.addQueryString.method = GET 20.typolink.returnLast = url # Then everything is rawUrlEncoded so it can # be placed as a single parameter in the link URL stdWrap.rawUrlEncode = 1 } # And finally the parameter data is wrapped with the "&tipUrl=" parameter. wrap = &tipUrl=| } } } ### articleLinks temp.articleLinks = COA temp.articleLinks { ### Printlink 10 < lib.print_url 20 = HTML 20.value = 60 < .20 70 < lib.tip_url 80 < .20 } lib.printLinks < temp.articleLinks Alternately, for print pages, you could use CSS to hide the unneeded elements in your current template when printing and to avoid the need to have a specific print page.
