hi
you can create your own custom metadata by adding codes in custommodel.xml and web-client-config.xml….

Follow a example about custom folder metadata and custom content metadata

ok,

but cant you guys simple copy and paste a sample of it?

I´m getting very frustrated by not been able to do such a very basic stuffs.

hastovich, in your alfresco/classes folder, copy web-client-config.xml, and rename it to web-client-config-custom.xml, then paste this newly renamed file into your extensions directory. Open the file in your text editor, and remove all the tags except <alfresco-config> and </alfresco-config>, and there you have a basic web-config-client-custom.xml file for you to add custom metadata with.

The web-config-client-custom.xml.sample is basically just the web-config-client.xml file with a lot of tags commented out, it's there just to provide you with examples of how to configure Alfresco Explorer, but you can get the same thing from web-client-config.xml

I think you need to modify an xml file to get it done. I really need to check it out once!
