I have created a custom type. I want to add the cm:effectivity aspect to the type. I do not want to manually add that aspect. It should already be there when I change the content type. Does anyone know how to do this in model?
I don't know about doing it in the model, however you could do implement this with a rule. The rule, at the site folder level including subfolders, would add the aspect whenever a new object of the custom type was created.
