Hi,

You can create content model in 2 ways.

1)Using model manager. Content modeling with Model Manager | Alfresco Documentation

2)Manually .Working With Custom Content Types in Alfresco | ECMArchitect | Alfresco Developer Tutorials

Here we are not connecting any content model with database,it is handle by alfresco itself.

Can you explain in detail what is mean by connect it to a database and apply crud operation?

Thanks,

Sanjay

What I want to do is to create a model, add a new button in the share which takes you to a new page, where you find a form. you fill the form, than you hit the submit button and the data you entered get saved to a database.

Thanks,
Riadh

You can do it by either creating custom Aikau / Surf page. You may also add a custom button in a document library as well. You can refer Aikau Pages | Alfresco Documentation and Surf Pages | Alfresco Documentation for the custom pages with a button. If you are new to Alfresco, I recommend you to learn the Alfresco platform and share extension points, and then you should choose a proper approach. You might find some easier way to implement the same rather than to develop everything from scratch.
