advanced BE-viewEach SE can have a special (template based) BE-view. Activate this option for a customised BE-view in TemplaVoila or standard page module.
advanced edit icons in BEActivate this option and the standard edit icons for a content element will not be shown – they pop up if you move the mouse over the element header.
Development-mode (BE/FE)This enables/disables internal caching of element settings. Enable this option for development – disable it for live websites. Might cost some performance if enabled.
BE-module: Activate the installed specialelements with the specialelements BE-module. Each specialelement can be activated per page-tree and per column (non-TV).
Caching: Specialelements have their own caching mechanism. The cache is not cleared with the standard “clear FE-cache” button. To clear the cache of one element, you have to press the “clear cache” button of the element in the dropdown “activate elements”.Caching can be disabled or defined in minutes for each specialelement.
In case specialelements do not get rendered in the FE, insert the following snippet in your extension-template:
