To add custom properties on Advanced Search in Alfresco Web Client you must edit web-client-config-custom.xml.
You can add your custom properties in advanced-search element, in this way:


<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Advanced Search">
      <advanced-search>
         <content-types>
            <type name="my:contentType" />
         ….
         </content-types>
        <custom-properties>
         <meta-data type="my:contentType" property="my:propertyName" />
         …..
      </custom-properties>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Remember that your custom content model must extends the default Alfresco content type to allow these new properties work correctly in Web Client.

hi OpenPj,
thanks for your prompt response but my issue is beyond of this point. In fact, I see all my content type in the select box above and all my properties in the additional options panel (and this is the issue, all the properties are shown in this panel).That I want to do is that : when I select one I need that solely properties that belong to this selected content type will apprear.
How to implement this customization.
Thanks in advance.
