Plugins - gtbu/Typesetter5.2 GitHub Wiki

Typesetter Cms has 3 types of plugins

** Gadgets - installation and GetGadget-call in the theme-code (or with Sections -> File-Area -> Publish (then : edit the new added area and choose the gadget-name in the scrollable popup and publish. This adds a gadget to a single page)

** Section-plugins - in the page-menu under sections -> plugins

** General plugins - as for additional fonts etc. - appear in the Cms side menu after installation under available plugins - sometimes the admin must give additional rights in the user-profile : Details)

The installation of plugins can be done

  • From the Internet (at the moment not possible since Tyesettercms.com is down) into directory : /_data/addoncode )

  • Manually with ftp (filezilla-portable) into the directory /Addons. (Winscp doesnt copy all types of file-types.)

Available plugins

The addon.ini contains the basic data of the plugin - the same is with the addon.ini of the themes.


*** Many Typesetter-plugins were written for Php5 and may not function with Php8, because php7-deprecations are errors in Php8. You can look at this Typesetter - Plugin - Site whether an updated version exists.

The inbuilt php-debugger can give detailed information.
