TYPO3 CMS Usability Team

Proposed text edit for the no-backend Install Tool: https://redpen.io/ecjmy6

(Compare with: https://redpen.io/xomjry )

I need error message clarification.

"The content will not be fixed to not override your changes."

This is a very confusing sentence, and I also assume override should be overwrite. I'd like to confirm what actually happens. Is the file overwritten or not?

Edit: is clarified

I need clarification on the current process for this text

"Import basic database structure and create a backend administrator user. The password can be used to log in to the install tool and to the TYPO3 CMS backend (default: with username "admin").

The table import will drop possibly existing tables!"

( https://redpen.io/vspngz )

1) The note says to highlight the behavior that is different from the old version. I'd suggest bolding "install tool" and "TYPO3 CMS backend" and will do so for now.
2) "The table import will drop possibly existing tables" -- this only applies to tables that the TYPO3 database needs, I assume? So something like "Existing tables needed by TYPO3 will be overwritten!" might be clearer. Or does it actually drop other tables??

Slight rewrite of the Install Tool last screen: https://redpen.io/k2eqs9

Update after the screenshot: "You now have an empty installation. If you want a pre-configured site, there are distributions on the web which can be installed via the Extension Manager. If you check the option below, the list of distributions will be fetched and you will be able to choose one directly."

Slight rewrite of the Install Tool locked screen (in Backend): https://redpen.io/tkw2op

In the Install Tool login screen: https://redpen.io/ndhyvf

The first paragraph has been changed to reflect the new TYPO3 6.2 behavior:

"By default the install tool password is the one specified during the install. Be sure to change it! "

But is this completely right? Why would I need to change it if I just set it?

Added password warning info to the install tool login https://redpen.io/t2bwj3

Reworded the top part of the install tool welcome screen: https://redpen.io/cdk49j

Reworded the configuration preset info for development / production settings:

Before:
TYPO3 can be run in a specific application context by using one of the
built-in contexts "Production" (default), "Development" or "Testing".
This can be used to provide specific configuration sets for each context.
The context can be defined with the environment variable "TYPO3_CONTEXT"
which is usually set through your webserver configuration (e.g. in htaccess).

After:
TYPO3 can be run in a specific application context by using the environment
variable "TYPO3_CONTEXT", which is usually set in your webserver configuration
(e.g. in htaccess). Built-in contexts are "Production" (default), "Development"
or "Testing". This can be used to provide specific configuration sets for each context.

Yes, that would be ok.

Actually in the step where you select the "database", you can only select databases which are EMPTY, so this information is obsolete and not relevant anymore.

Yes, true, no need to change it.
