Cordial invitation to the Website Wednesday (18 February) and the TYPO3 introductory training (23 + 24 February)

A week ago we started the DeepL automatic translation ...

The DeepL-based automatic translation service will be launched on uol.de on 28 January.

Website Wednesday on 21 January: Activation of automatic English translation (end of January) and TYPO3 update (19 January)

Current information about the website (with two important new features!) and the turn of the year

This time, the short training course deals with the integration of a live search into your own website.

After a somewhat longer summer break, here is a bunch of current information about our TYPO3 system

TYPO3 login and intranet content are converted to the new login system.

From now on you can also log in to TYPO3 with the new login system .

Information on the correct formatting of contact data and TYPO3 support

The news system has now been updated and offers extended options, which is why it is being reconsidered.

New: If the "Info box" frame look and the "Expandable" feature are assigned at the same time, the content element now appears in a customised look.

Website Wednesday is taking place today, and there is now automatic labelling of external and internal links.

Website Wednesday postponed by one week; simplified file structure; changes to the page footer; content modules can now also be collapsed within containers

One last piece of information at the end of the year with a series of current announcements.

Topic this time: Data protection in online forms

Invitation to tomorrow's Website Wednesday, our (almost) monthly TYPO3 online short training course

Up-to-date information to better protect online forms against incorrect entries.

Search and find in TYPO3. The more content you manage in TYPO3, the more difficult it is to keep track of it. TYPO3 counters this with its various search functions.

Video recording on innovations and possible problems of the update to TYPO3 12

Invitation to the BBB meeting to take a look at the new features in TYPO3 v12.

On the evening of 7 August we will switch to TYPO3 version 12 and will then temporarily block page editing.

Information on contact e-mail address and support during the holiday period

The previous grid elements have now been replaced by the new "Container" module.

TYPO3 update, Website Wednesday in August and other current innovations

Online short training on 15 May and some current information from our TYPO3 CMS.

This time it's about the "List" view and new options for restricting the registration of online forms.

Video recording: Display dates of a calendarised website on the page itself, use them as response options in input forms and activate a login restriction.

Invitation to the Website Wednesday (14 February 2024) and the introductory TYPO3 training (19 + 20 February 2024) as well as some news

So-called CSS classes can be used to activate display variants of content elements. A separate documentation website now provides information on how to use them.

The new quick start list shows the steps required to create and fill a new page.

Invitation to Website Wednesday and some current information

The update to TYPO3 11 was installed on 25.07.2022. Here are some notes on this.

After we integrated the AI-based DeepL translator into our TYPO3 CMS in June to support translation, this is now also explained in more detail in the documentation.

By clicking on the question mark in the top bar, you can directly access our "UOL documentation". Here you will find current information, training dates and instructions.

We now have a link to the translation service DeepL. Translation "at the touch of a button" is very tempting, but there are certain things you need to be aware of! Please read our notes on this.

When editing the http address of a page, TYPO3 now provides new auxiliary functions, such as automatic redirection from the previous to the new address. However, this must be used with caution, otherwise problems may occur!

Several improvements have been made to the "Check links" module in the Info module. It is now easier to regularly correct incorrect hyperlinks.

From 8 October 2020, the websites will appear in a layout adapted to the university's new corporate design.

Web pages can now be converted into intranet pages and are immediately recognisable as such in the page tree by their icon. The highlight: using the university login, you can also log in from outside as an internal person and thus access the pages.

If the contents of column constructs (grid elements) are to be aligned in the centre instead of at the top, this can now be achieved by simply assigning a corresponding characteristic.

What to look out for so that text content has the right look. This concerns the handling of headings, capitalisation, spacing and more ...

Spacing, background colours, column constructs and special formats are demonstrated here.

Hyperlinks can be given a button look for various purposes.

Other possible elements of an organisation homepage are shown as examples.

This page serves as a template for a personal homepage. In addition to contact and profile information, there is also space for a CV, publications, etc.

A few things have changed with the new website layout. It is explained here.
