TYPO3: Adding new fields for tt_content has problems with new content elements from extensions

I have written the TYPO3 extension "cewrap", which adds new fields to table tt_content. Problem is, when installing an extension which introduces new content elements (e.g. EXT:gridelements) and this extension is loaded after my extension (because of its position in PackageStates.php), the fields from my extension are missing in the new content elements.

Is there a solution for that problem? Is there a way to affect the order of the entries in PackageStates.php?

Solution

  • Adding the packages you want to come before your own package, as entries in the suggest properties of composer and TER manifests, should sort them as such in PackageStates.php.
