Overriding cm:content

zladuric — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 15:07:08 GMT

Hello, I have a custom content type inheriting cm:content. I also have cm:content indexing set to false, now I want to enable it for this case.So my custom type (in extended myco-model.xml) looks something like this:<type name="my:type"> <title>irrelevant</title> <parent&g

Do you get the same error when you remove <type>d:content</type> from the overridden property? Seems to me that the type of content should not be overridden…

Removing the type tag will break xml model parsing since it is a mandatory information in a property definition.

The model is very strict on *where* you put the overrides.

<code>
<type name="my:type">
    <title>irrelevant</title>
    <parent>cm:content</parent>
<!– overrides need to be directly below the parent –>
    <overrides>
   <property name="cm:content">
          <type>d:content</type>
     <mandatory>false</mandatory>
     <index enabled="true">
         <atomic>true</atomic>
         <stored>false</stored>
         <tokenised>true</tokenised>
      </index>
   </property>
    </overrides>
    <properties>
           …
           …
    </properties>
</type>
<code>

Also double-check what you are overriding, not everything can be overridden.
