Contao

CMS · Betabeta

Push finished articles into a Contao news archive using the News Pull extension. This integration is in Beta. It requires a third-party bundle installed on your Contao site, it always creates a new news item instead of updating one, and it can surface errors from your own Contao setup.

  1. 1

    Install News Pull on your Contao site

    On the Contao server, run composer require philtenno/news-pull and update the database. See the philtenno/news-pull repository for the full installation guide. In the Contao backend, configure a news archive target and generate an import token for that archive.

  2. 2

    Open Settings → Integrations

    In gehirn.md, open dashboard Settings → Integrations, select your project, and choose Contao (Beta) from Add integration.

  3. 3

    Enter your site URL and token

    Set Site URL to your public Contao origin, for example https://www.example.com. Paste the News Pull token from the extension settings. It is encrypted before storage. The optional target label is only for your own reference when you have multiple Contao integrations on one project.

  4. 4

    Publish

    From any finished article, hit Publish and pick the Contao integration. gehirn.md converts the markdown to HTML and sends it to the News Pull endpoint. Each publish creates a new news item in the archive tied to your token.

Good to know

  • Beta status: errors can come from a missing News Pull install, a wrong token, or your Contao server configuration.
  • Create-only. Republishing the same article creates another news item; there is no update-in-place support yet.
  • No connection test in gehirn.md for Contao. Verify the token and archive in your Contao backend first.
  • Publish time (dateShow) is sent in UTC, so visibility on your site may differ from your local timezone.
  • Hero images are not published in this version.
