The information displayed in each list item in the document library is driven by a metadata template. The defaults can be overridden in <tomcat_home>/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml. Here is what the default metadata template looks like in Alfresco 4:


      <template id="default">
          <line index="10" id="date">{date}{size}</line>
          <line index="20" id="description" view="detailed">{description}</line>
          <line index="30" id="tags" view="detailed">{tags}</line>
          <line index="40" id="categories" view="detailed" evaluator="evaluator.doclib.metadata.hasCategories">{categories}</line>
          <line index="50" id="social" view="detailed">{social}</line>
      </template>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

To change the display, you would override this template by adding something like this to share-custom-config.xml:


  <!– change metadata that is displayed in the docuemnt library list view –>
  <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary" replace="true">
      <metadata-templates>
          <!– Default (fallback) –>
          <template id="default">
              <line index="10" id="date">{date}{size}</line>
              <line index="20" id="description" view="detailed">{description}</line>
              <line index="30" id="tags" view="detailed">{tags}</line>
              <!– don't display the categories or the social options –>
              <!–<line index="40" id="categories" view="detailed" evaluator="evaluator.doclib.metadata.hasCategories">{categories}</line>–>
              <!–<line index="50" id="social" view="detailed">{social}</line>–>
          </template>
      </metadata-templates>
  </config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

What this chunk of XML does is tell Share to use this as the default template for displaying document metadata in the list, replacing the configuration stored in share-documentlibrary-config.xml (which is a great place to look around at some of the various options). We have removed the categories option and the social options in this example.

Once you have made the change in share-config-custom.xml, restart Share and you should see your document library display change to reflect the new metadata template.

And that's all there is to it!

Hi,
well, I would be really helpful if you add your custom code/config here. Otherwise it's really hard to help you out.
Cheers, jan

Thanks for the help, but I've already fixed it. Was a problem with data validation, then i made a Javascript to format the entered data.
