TYPO3 creates for pages of the type shortcut and for pages of the type external link by default no direct link to the external page / to the shortcut target.

This snippet also enables the CUR and ACT state for pages of the type shortcut.

 

This can be changed with a CASE object on the stdWrap of a menuitem:

 

lib.menu=HMENU
lib.menu{
  1=TMENU
  1.wrap=<ul>|</ul>
  1.NO {
    		# do not create a link here else there are double <a> tags
    doNotLinkIt = 1
    wrapItemAndSub=<li>|</li>
    stdWrap.cObject = CASE
    stdWrap.cObject {
      key.field = doktype
      default = TEXT
      default {
        field = title
        typolink.parameter.field = uid
        stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
      }
      			# 4 = shortcut
      4 = TEXT
      4 {
        field = title
        typolink.parameter.field = shortcut
      }
      			# 3 = external url
      3 = TEXT
      3 {
        field = title
        typolink.parameter.field = url
        typolink.extTarget.field = target
      }
       
    }
  }
}

Just a little note: When you generate the menulinks using the typolink function, then the menu will not work correctly on sites that uses mountpoints.

Thanks a lot for this example.

How can I add some attributes to the generated tag "<a href.." ?

For example, I would like to add the attribute "class".

To get the CUR-State working on shortcuts, you could also use this:


lib.shortcutATagParams = TEXT
lib.shortcutATagParams.value = class="active"
lib.shortcutATagParams.if{
isTrue.field = shortcut
value.data = TSFE:id
equals.field = shortcut
}

...
yourMenu.1.NO.ATagParams.stdWrap.cObject < lib.shortcutATagParams
