New WEC Content Elements Extension: Vimeo, YouTube and More

The new WEC Content elements extension adds several new content elements for use in TYPO3. These content elements are found alongside the built in content elements such as Text with Image. Like the built in content elements, they use simple editing forms to add and update content. Power users have the ability to configure them further with Typoscript. Currently, WEC Content Elements contains four new content elements.

  1. The "Local Menu" content element shows a menu of second level pages on the websites. It is typically used on interior pages in the sidebar.

  2. The "Rotating Images" content element relies on jQuery Cycle to loop through a set of images using various transitions. This is often useful as a simple photo gallery or as a rotating billboard for promos on a home page.

  3. The "Vimeo Video" content element is a simple way to embed video from the Vimeo.com website.

  4. The "YouTube Video" content element is a simple way to embed video from the YouTube.com website.

Just found out about the new content element extension which allows inclusion of Mimeo, TouTube, etc. content. It would be useful to include some info about how to add such new features to an existing site.
