Overwrite FAL metadata from file reference #2

Closed nabossha closed 9 years ago

nabossha commented 9 years ago

Is there a way to access the metadata of FAL-items (i.e. title, description) and get it into the template? i am currently struggling to achieve this. Would be a very useful addition to this ext!

That's already possible and one of the main features of this extension!

thank you for these - i should have written my question more specifically because what you write is absolutely correct but where i'm struggling is: When metadata like title or description are overwritten in the local record (using "multiple files" or "file collection" in the plugin) these values are not available in any of my {item} porperties. is there a way to access these "local" values (which is what most editors are using...). when using normal tt_content image elements the local title/description also override FAL-metadata.

thanks a lot for this fix - it's now working as expected using TYPO3 6.2.15

Sure, glad it worked and thanks for the report! I will wait until next week for TYPO3 7.5, do some testing and than pushing a new version to TER.

Thanks a lot for your donation! Really appreciated!
