Creating content of custom type in Share

I am trying to have Share let the user create new documents based on a custom type I implemented (see the excellent documentation here <a>http://ecmarchitect.com/images/articles/alfresco-content/content-article-2ed.pdf</a>)

I had the type implemented and defined aspects, but I can't see a clear way to configure Share in order to propose in the interface my type for a new document.

I guess it should be added to the Create content menu option that lists available types.

Thanks

Is there a way to define the menu to JUST display my custom types, and not show entries for Plain Text, HTML, XML?

Would be great if there was a reference somewhere for all of the Share configuration elements that come out of the box.

Copy the entire standard


<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary">


section into share-config-custom.xml and remove what you no longer want.

Then I think if you make the first line of the config in share-config-custom.xml


<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocumentLibrary" replace="true">


this will replace the existing config as opposed to adding to it.

I'll give that a shot.

Could any one mention the detailed procedure of creating custom folder types in alfresco share?
