Installed new TYPO3 login features

Created by Jill |

I have installed some new features for the TYPO3 login page.  A summary follows.

  1. Pop-up checking
    • Some have discovered that forgetting to allow pop-ups before using TYPO3 can have consequences of losing work.  Now, a message is displayed if your browser does not allow pop-ups BEFORE you even log in to TYPO3 and have a chance to lose work.
    • As a result, you may notice a small browser window open and close very quickly when you go to the TYPO3 login page.  If this window does _not_ close, please let me know.
  2. MagpieRSS news feed
    • MagpieRSS is, according to its README file, "an XML-based RSS parser in PHP."  All it does is take the CMS news feed (RSS) and show it on the page.  The page display now includes a handy NEW icon when a message is less than 10 days old.  This should help bring your attention to new news!

Take a look at the new TYPO3 login page today!  http://www.ndsu.edu/cms/typo3 .
