Email have my tasks, my background info – it’s the core of the life in business

I always loved gmail’s way of labeling things. It was fast, easy and good searchable. The only think I disliked was the fact it was online. All the time.

Recently I switched back from using Mail combined with the power of MailTags to using Gmail. I have put my system back up, using quick links to save my searches (which I do for getting projects overviews of all the containing tasks) and using Fluid with a Apple’s mail icon to overcome my feeling of  ’always online’.

It’s working for me after  a period of not working MailTags (tags were not reminded correctly, searches didn’t go too well, lack of SL support and since it’s there – I would need to pay again to upgrade…) – I am quite happy.

What I do miss a lot though is setting a tickler date to emails. Some emails just need to be snoozed for a day or 2 or three or until a specific date… No luck on that one, but my hope is up!

If you know a way of snoozing or tickling dates with gmail, please let me know!

So – what do you put in?

I used to use macina searchbox when I just started working with TYPO3, but getting more feeling with typoscript, I personally like using as less as extensions as possible.

So, how do I do it?

First of all, make sure you implement Indexed Search (setting up the indexing etc.). You really should read the documentation on that - although if you’re like me you’d like me post it here for you!

Second make sure you a subpart Marker (or when using TemplaVoila make sure you map the location to a typoscript object). Usually mine is named lib.searchbox.

Third thing you do is prepare some constants in your TS template:

plugin.tx_indexedsearch.searchUID = 2
plugin.tx_indexedsearch.showAdvanced = 0

The searchUID constant is the page containing your search results (your page with the indexed_search plugin on it).

In the setup you now use the following code to give you the searchbox.

options.disableDocModuleInAB = 1
setup.override.edit_docModuleUpload = 1

I have been wondering about this for a while – tested some stuff here and there and finally I came up with this solution. I hope it will be helpful to you in one of your projects as well!

tt_content.stdWrap.outerWrap = |<div style="display:none;"></div>
lib.contentBar = COA
lib.contentBar {
10 < styles.content.get
stdWrap.split {
token = <div style="display:none;"></div>
cObjNum = 1||2 |*| 3||4 |*| 5||6
1.current = 1
1.wrap = <div class="first">|</div>
2.current = 1
2.wrap = <div class="middle">|</div>
3.current = 1
3.wrap = <div class="middle">|</div>
4.current = 1
4.wrap = <div class="middle">|</div>
5.current = 1
5.wrap = <div class="last">|</div>
6.current = 1
}
}

Questions? Leave a reply!

Have a better solution? Leave a reply, please! I especially do not like the splitter part, because of the extra code. I used ###SPLITTER### at first, but that left me with a ###SPLITTER### marker on the pages I didn’t use the replacement…

There must be a better way – so please!

# Image from the page properties
temp.headerImage = IMAGE
temp.headerImage {
	file.import = uploads/media/
	file.import.data = levelmedia:-1, slide
	file.import.listNum=0
}

1. Open your main (plugins) template in Typo3, in full glory (you can figure out what that means!)
2. Add in the ‘Include Static’ section: plugin.alt.print (98)
   1. this adds the page type 98 to your site
3. Now  you can use the constants to add some special cs/html to make it feel the way you like it to be
   1. plugin.alt.print.file.stylesheet = fileadmin/templates/res/print.css
   2. plugin.alt.print.file.template = fileadmin/templates/print.html
4. Now add the following code in the TS where you built your (footer) menu:
   1. stdWrap {
      append = TEXT
      append.value = print
      append.typolink.title = printversion of this page
      append.typolink.parameter.dataWrap = {TSFE:id},98
      }
   2. This will add a link entitled print to the menu and will generate the correct pagetype.
5. This works with SimulateStatic (print.34.98.html) as a charm!
6. And why not with the rest? It will!

Have fun!

And here the same code, ready to copy – paste:
