My guess is that you did not edit the ####-model-context.xml, so that your file is not read at bootstrap.

To be sure, make some XML mystake in your scModel.xml, start Alfresco and see if any error is raised.
If not, that means that your model was not registered at bootstrap

pleas see file example-model-context.xml.sample

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Well, I made sure that my custom model is registered at bootstrap. Below is how I did it and have placed it in alfresco/extension:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>
 
<beans>

    <!– Registration of new models –>   
    

   <bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" depends-on="dictionaryBootstrap">
        <property name="models">
            <list>
                <value>alfresco/extension/scModel.xml</value>
             
            </list>
        </property>
    </bean>
</beans>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And I can even create nodes using my custom content model without any exception (while executing my jcr code) and retriving those nodes programatically. But those created nodes are not at all visible in Alfresco web client! I am not sure whether I did some configuration mistake or do I need to modify some more configuration/s somewhere? If you can please suggest, will be very kind.

Many thanks
Amit.

did you find a way around this? I am also faced with the same issue currently.

Hi Amit,

I faced the same issue.

Alfresco Explorer by default displays FOLDER, CONTENT and PERSON types.

In your case if you search your created nodes using Node Browser you will find those nodes, but to display in
advanced search or within companyHome or elsewhere refer below link.
