The static export replaced every EXT:form form with a contact notice. The
forms are back, rendered by TYPO3 13 and embedded in the static pages:
- Page type 1704 (/<page>/form) renders only the form plugin of a page,
inside a .form-island element. Every form posts to that URL
(renderingOptions.additionalParams), because on www the page URL is a
static file that never reaches TYPO3. htmx swaps the island in place:
validation errors, multi-step pages and confirmations. A redirect to an
htmx request becomes HX-Redirect (HtmxRedirectMiddleware), so Redirect
finishers send the browser to the thank-you page.
- While a request runs, an overlay with a spinner (as in MyE&P) covers
the form. Styled inside the island: the static pages load the CSS of
the TYPO3 10 export.
- The bw_captcha image comes from /<page>/captcha for the same reason.
Both suffixes are in the PageType enhancer of every site with forms
(semesterende gets one with default '' to keep its URLs).
- Ported from TYPO3 10: form setup, templates and partials, the MyE&P
address finisher, the job application finisher with the MyE&P Team
API client (epTeamApi* in secrets.php), the page URL/referrer finisher
with ReferrerMiddleware (?ref=), the e-mail layout without the system
footer, bw_captcha 5 and form_element_linked_checkbox 6. The address
check forms are dropped.
- German language packs (EXT:form messages): availableLanguages = de,
fetched on every deploy (typo3:language:update).
- The checkbox partials passed null to VHS' substring, which PHP 8.5
reports as deprecated.
- DDEV no longer turns deprecations into exceptions, matching
production: EXT:form's RenderFormValueViewHelper uses null as an array
offset for empty optional fields (core bug, also in 13.4.37).
The static pages get their placeholders from the exporter in EP/website,
see .ddev/plans/static-export-form-islands.patch (local only).

Search page (searchresult plugin), AJAX results and filter panel, the
mobile filter overlay, search links ("Alle anzeigen", menu icon) and
the /reiseauswahl/{name} landing redirects are back. The search bar in
the page header stays out (SearchbarController not ported); on detail
pages the menu icon links to the search page instead of toggling it.
- Extbase requests are immutable: withArgument() instead of
setArgument()
- StaticSearchParamsMiddleware runs after site resolution and before
page resolution (the old position is a cycle in v13); FilterService
copes with the missing TypoScript there, as TYPO3 10 did
- Search and filter forms are sent URL-encoded instead of multipart, so
production can keep rejecting multipart requests
- ski-wochenenden: websiteTitle from the old sys_template sitetitle
Compared with TYPO3 10 on the same data (249 cases: search pages with
all 41 preset filters, landing redirects, AJAX results and filter
panel, GET and POST): 186 identical, 63 with the same results in a
different order (PHP 8 sorts stably, ties came out in arbitrary order
on PHP 7.4). Processed image names differ by their configuration hash.

- News records: EXT:news is not installed, so the default restrictions
lack its TCA; deleted, hidden, starttime and endtime are applied by
hand (TYPO3 13 listed 37 deleted or hidden news in the manifest)
- Site config ski-wochenenden is back: the content feed lists it
(contentFeedSites); DDEV host skiwe-ep13.ddev.site
Compared with the TYPO3 10 project on the same database (912 cases):
240 identical, 665 differ only because TYPO3 13 leaves out hidden
file references in image lists, 7 only in the order of MM relations
with equal sorting values.
