TYPO3 form definition not found in frontend

TYPO3 v12

In my sitepackage I have defined a CustomFormSetup.yaml. In this configuration file I have defined an allowed extension path:

TYPO3:
  CMS:
    Form:
      persistenceManager:
        allowedExtensionPaths:
          100: 'EXT:my_sitepackage/Resources/Private/Forms/'
        allowSaveToExtensionPaths: false
        allowDeleteFromExtensionPaths: false

The form definitions in this directory are displayed in the form editor and also in the select field of the form plugin. But in the frontend I get an error message:

The file "EXT:my_sitepackage/Resources/Private/Forms/contactform.form.yaml" could not be loaded. Please check your configuration option "persistenceManager.allowedExtensionPaths"

I don't know what is missing here. In former TYPO3 versions this worked always fine. Any idea welcome.

Solution

  • You have to add this typoscript to your sitepackage, for example :

    plugin.tx_form {
    settings {
        yamlConfigurations {
            # register your own additional configuration
            # choose a number higher than 30 (below is reserved)
            100 = EXT:my_sitepackage/Configuration/Yaml/CustomFormSetup.yaml
        }
    }
}

    Additional note: it is not necessary to set allowSaveToExtensionPaths and allowDeleteFromExtensionPaths to false, as they are already set to false.
