TYPO3 Mailingliste: nicht fragen - lesen!

Hi

I found in the English list that start module has been added to Typo3 4.x.
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=3894
I disagree with the *priority* setting, which is i

1. Get params
2. Start Module
3. Start from task center

on the base of this fragment:
if (!$module) {
if ($BE_USER->uc['startModule']) {
$module = $BE_USER->uc['startModule'];
} elseif ($BE_USER->uc['startInTaskCenter']) {
$module = 'user_task';
}
}

I would set this priority, which I have set in tm_shared_lib

1. Start from task center
2. Start Module
3. Get params

Reasons:

* Start from task center is special option and that's why should have
the highest priority
* Get params are *out of the control of the administrator* - very bad!.
Because of this issue imo this should have the lowest priority.

You mean: if task center present (installed and available for the current
user) then use it.

That defeats all possible configuration for alternatives. The point of this
setting is exactly to have an alternative start module.

But I guess it's questionable if the user or the admin is responsible for
the start module. IMHO a user may choose, but an admin should have override
options via user/group TS settings. Maybe he could also limit the available
modules to choose from for the user settings.

No. But it the option is to 'Start from taskcenter' is enabled imo it
should be understood a kind of override setting and that's why priority.

My too. 'Start from taskcenter' would be just *exception* - a kind of
shortcut definition too.

Yes - but if GET-parameters have the highest priority then
setup.override.startModule=... would not work. This was my main point.

At least Typo3 shoud check if
setup.override.startFromTaskcenter
or
setup.override.startModule

have been set.
That could be done for example this way:

$this->overrideProperties =
$3lib_BEfunc::getModTSconfig(0,'setup.override');
$this->overrideProperties=$this->overrideProperties['properties'];

then conditions would be following.

if(!$this->overrideProperties['startFromTaskcenter'] &&
!$this->overrideProperties['startModule'] && $module)) {
$module=... // information from GET-variables
}
elseif ($BE_USER->uc['startInTaskCenter']) {
$module = 'user_task';
}
elseif ($BE_USER->uc['startModule']) {
$module = $BE_USER->uc['startModule'];
}

This should set highest priority for admin settings but
GET parameters would override *normal* user settings,
but *not* those, which have been set by 'setup.override.something'.

It would be nice also that user could set startModule then
from User > Setup, when the setting would be fully consintent.

Maybe he could also limit

Hi
Just as another idea: Isn't it possible for the admin to disallow the
user from selecting the taskcenter as the start module? (just disable
the UI elements)..

I would preffer a possible selection between the modules firstly in the
user/group elements of TYPO3 (where you select access lists, etc) and
secondly in the users setup module.



just my 2 cents

belongs to default features using setup.override...
but this doen't hide the entire selection
