Can you post contents of your web-client-config-custom.xml file?

This is the content of shared\classes\alfresco\extension\web-client-config-custom.xml :

<alfresco-config>

   <!– Example of adding languages to the list in the login page –>
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Languages">
      <languages>
         <language locale="fr_FR">French</language>
      </languages>
   </config>

   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Client">
      <client>
          <!– The default location to display when the browse screen is first shown –>
          <!– This value should be one of 'myalfresco', 'userhome', 'companyhome' or 'guesthome' –>
          <initial-location>companyhome</initial-location>
     <edit-link-type>cifs</edit-link-type>
      </client>
   </config>

</alfresco-config>

It's ok for the language but nothing appen for the two others options (location and link-type)

Try it this way:

<alfresco-config>

<config>
<client>
<!– The default location to display when the browse screen is first shown –>
<!– This value should be one of 'myalfresco', 'userhome', 'companyhome' or 'guesthome' –>
<initial-location>companyhome</initial-location>
<edit-link-type>cifs</edit-link-type>
</client>
</config>

<!– Example of adding languages to the list in the login page –>
<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Languages">
<languages>
<language locale="fr_FR">French</language>
</languages>
</config>

</alfresco-config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In web-client-config-custom.xml the sections have to be in the same order than in web-client-config.xml ?

surprising i am…

It's a good tip, tank you.

I removed this from your code <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Client">.
