Check whether you have this set

ldap.synchronization.userEmailAttributeName=mail‍

in ldap-ad-authentication.properties / alfresco-global.properties file

Hi Sujay,

This property is set already in my ldap-ad-authentication.properties in both location C:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\subsystems\Authentication\ldap-ad and C:\Alfresco\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension\subsystems\Authentication\ldap-ad

Still its not working…

Also I need to customize the Edit Metadata dialog box for the 'spaces' for Alfresco Share and not the Alfresco Explorer (need to add 2 more textboxes on the Edit metadata page and anybody can be able to search with that new metadata).

I tried lot of things given on the forum, but its not working.
Please do needful.

Hi,

I'm using Alfresco 4.2c.

I've tried the creation of custom metadata fields and those are appearing on the pop up of Edit Properties also (all properties are common for all spaces and files inside all spaces).

Now, the requirement is changed as, as there are different spaces in repository, all must be having their relevant custom fields only, and not all custom properties.

e.g. Suppose there are 3 spaces in my repository viz. Proposal, Invoices and Others.
Now, when I upload the documents in 'Proposal' space, and click on Edit Properties of the file, pop up should ask me for default fields Name, Title and Description AND custom fields as Proposal Number, Client Name and Remarks.

When I upload documents in 'Invoices' space, and clock on Edit Properties of those files in Invoices folder, pop up should ask me default Name, Title and Description AND custom fields as Invoice Number, Department, PO number and remarks.

And lastly, when I upload any documents in 'Others' space, Edit Properties pop-up of files in that space should ask for Name, Title, Description and custom properties as Remarks.

Kindly help.

Thanks and Regards.

What you need to do is have different document types. Each document type has its own metadata definition so can vary. This way you would have a document type of "proposal" which would have what you need for proposals, "invoice" for invoices etc. Then when you upload a document you set its document type and you get the relevant metadata.
