File field with allowLanguageSynchronization

[ursbraem]

Versions: TYPO3 12.4.8 with Mask 8.3.7

We have an asset field to be used for images. With the option allowLanguageSynchronization there is the following error when editing the field in the Backend:

As opposed, the error is not thrown when using the "media" field.

Maybe a bug or just a configuration issue?

This is interesting, looks like a TYPO3 bug. If you set allowLanguageSynchronization for a core field, Mask generates a columnsOverride section. TYPO3 just looks through all fields, if there is at least one with allowLanguageSynchronization set. But it does not apply the Content element specific overrides.

If you want this option for ALL image fields, you can use TCA overrides. It does not work for a specific Content Element so to seem.

$GLOBALS['TCA']['tt_content']['columns']['image']['config']['behaviour']['allowLanguageSynchronization'] = true

Thanks Nikita! Should I do something?

[nhovratov]

As I said, please remove the option from your field and add it via TCA, of you really need it.

Thanks! I meant regarding the core bug, I'm a bit out of touch what's the best way to report one so it doesn't simply sit there or produce a dupe.

I will take care, don't worry! But it has very low priority. This is again something, only comes to light, because you have so many possibilities with Mask, which will almost never be done manually.

Ah I see! Thanks!
