If you’re using the open source TYPO3 for enterprise content management, you care about performance. Touted as a flexible and scalable CMS for websites and mobile apps, combining TYPO3 with StackPath CDN helps further enhance the performance TYPO3 affords.
This tutorial will show you how to use the TYPO3 CMS bootstrap package to integrate StackPath into your TYPO3 content management system.
This tutorial assumes you have already created a site.
- Go to your Typo3 Login page and login.
- In Admin Tools, select “Extension manager.” Then from the top dropdown menu, select “ Get Extensions”.
- In the search field, enter “Content Replacer,” then press Enter. Once the search for the extension is done, click on the Import and Install icon next to the version 2.1.0.
- In your sidebar, select Template. Open the settings page of the template you’ve selected. Please note that the template has to be a rootlevel one.
- Add the following code in the setup field:
config.tx_ja_replacer { search { 1="typo3temp/ 2="fileadmin/ 3=”typo3conf/ } replace { 1="http://site.company.stackpathdns.com/typo3temp/ 2="http://site.company.stackpathdns.com/fileadmin/ 3="http://site.company.stackpathdns.com/typo3conf/ } }Please make sure to replace http://site.company.stackpathdns.com/ with your actual CDN url. Save the settings.
- Flush the frontend cache once you make these changes.
To ensure you implemented StackPath correctly, you can view the source code of any page to confirm that the CDN domain is being used for static assets instead of your origin domain. You can also use tools like pingdom and webpagetest that can give you more detailed reports on your CDN implementation status.
Your are now serving static files through StackPath. If you have any questions, please contact support with a new ticket or a live chat 24/7.
