Custom Content type based on "Link to a Document" does not open new folder in a dialog

Hi,
   We have created a custom Content Type  based on "Link to a Document" (0x01010A) into a document library. When I use the New Document button on the ribbon, the "Link to a document" form appears on the same window, not as a dialog. If we
use the "link to a document" content type it works fine.
  This issue occurs when creating the content type from the SharePoint UI as well as via XML (provisioning the content type).
   Is it a SharePoint bug or are we missing something?
Thanks!
Sergio

Hi S3rgiones,
I can reproduce your issue, when create a custom content type based on “Link to a Document” content type, create item using the content type, it will open the NewLink.aspx page in the same window not the modal dialog.
In this situation, you can try to custom the content type and customize the form page for it, specify it in the content type customization, if this doesn’t work, you may need to custom the content type not inherit from the default link to
a document, but customize it yourself.
Thanks,

  • Created column not showing in the Document Library View for a Custom Content Type based on Document

    We have a custom content type based of Document Content Type. The OOTB "Created" column does not show up in the view as well as in the Site Settings -> Columns.
    But it shows up in the Display Form and Edit Form of the Item at the bottom "Created at " by " " and "Modified by" at by ""
    Would anyone know how to make this column appear as part of the view ?
    thanks,
    Harsh

    Hi,
    They should by default be possible to add to a view. The only reason they would disappear from the UI if someone has changed the attribute of the Field to hidden = true. You can verify that with PowerShell and if so you can use PowerShell to revert the setting
    to false.
    $w = Get-SPWeb http://dev13$f = $w.Fields.GetFieldByInternalName("Created")$f.Hidden$f.Hidden = $false$f.Update()

  • WCF returning "The content type text/html of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8)"

    I have a WCF service I am trying to run on a new installation of 64-bit Windows Server 2008 IIS.

  • MS Excel document as attachment to a PDF document does not open with a hot spot/link in the PDF

    Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
    I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
    For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
    Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

    Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.  In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.

  • Links in search results do not open new tabs.

    I'm missing something here and in other threads on this subject. I used to be able to search in the search bar, using google, for instance, and a new tab would open with the search results. Then if I left clicked on a link within the search results another new tab would open and switch to the linked page.
    I don't remember how that was set up, but I know I didn't have to go into about:config or install a special add-on for that. I think it was set up in the tab mix plus add-on.
    I have no problem with the search results opening a new tab, it's that I now have to middle-click on a link or right-click + click on "open in new tab".
    What changed here and why? My old method worked in Ver. 21, it Changed in Ver. 22.
    It seems like all these "updates" remove stuff we used to have with no notice and then come up with more finger clicks and config edits to do what was straight forward before.

  • Object Link to DMS document - does not allow to link to docs not released

    Hi Folks,
    I am trying to create an object link from cProjects 4.5 to a DMS document. When I select a document in DMS I am getting the message "26 223 Document <doc_number> has not been released". If I set the status of the DMS document to a released status I am allowed to create the object link.
    My question is - why am I only allowed to object link to released DMS documents? I want link to a DMS document regardless of the status.
    Thanks,

  • Cannot get rid of default field in a custom content type

    hi guys,
    I have custom content type based on Document Set in a List based on Document Library. I created both using XML declaration in SP solution.
    I have all fields in my content type which I declared, except to defult fields: 'Name' and 'Description'. I need to hide both of them. After I set Inherits="FALSE" in ContentType section in Elements.xml in ContentType description the field
    'Description' goes away. But the field 'Name' marked as required and stays.
    I've also tried to add RemoveFieldRef parameter to the same Elements file, but the field persists. I assume it comes from list definition, not content type. But I cannot figure out how to get this field out from list definition.
    Do I miss something?

  • Refiner Based on Custom Content Type

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to develop a refiner that will show a subset of content types. The OOTB content type refiner shows all content types. Can somebody give me a pointer on how to show only those content types that I need to show in the refinement panel.
    Search result may contain results with other content types, but the refinement panel will only show those that I mention as filter.
    Also, is there some way for the refinement panel to know which content types inherit from your specified content type? For example -
    Software Project Document
           Functional Design
           Technical Design
           Installation Document
    Internal Process Document
           HR Document
           Finance Document
           Legal Document
    Once user performs any search, I want to show Software Project Document and Internal Process Document as refiner. The search result may contain other content types as well.
    Once the user clicks on Software Project Document, the refiner will show all 3 content types as refiner (let's assume that the search result contains results from all 3 content types). Is this possible?
    Or, Can I at least display only parent content type in a separate refiner and child content type in a separate refiners by applying some kind of filter in the refiner?
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Displaying Custom Content Types

    Short Version
    I have created custom content types that has a few properties that are complex. One is an image type and another is a collection of another custom content type. I am unable to display or access these items.
    Long Version
    I have a custom content type with the following properties
    It is called PageThreeColumn
    PageTitle : String
    LeftNav : String
    RightNav : String
    HeroImage : image (complext type that came with weblogic)
    ContentCollection: Collection of type ContentPlaceholder
    The other custom type ContentPlaceHolder
    Type : String
    HtmlContent : Binary
    I created a content presenter view (wlp-templete-config.xml) and I am able to get a simple string property to be displayed.
    So I can do the following
    <cm:getProperty name="LeftNav" node="${node}"/>
    And I get the expected String back.
    What I am unable to do is get to anything that is more complicated then the simple datatypes. For instance the Image data type.
    I have tried node.HeroImage but it does not display correctly.
    I appreciate any help you can give and would definately like a link to an example of displaying content that is not as trivial as most of the examples.

    I have tried the following code variations
    <div>
         ${node.properties[0]}
    <!--//Shows string as expected-->
         ${node.properties[1]}
    <!--//Shows string as expected-->
         ${node.properties[2]}
    <!--//Shows string as expected-->
         ${node.properties[3]}
    <!--//Shows the following
    HeroImage: [Lcom.bea.content.Property;@48958a1 -->
         ${node.properties[4]}
         <!--//Shows the following
         ContentCollection: [Lcom.bea.content.Property;@48958a5 ,
                                              [Lcom.bea.content.Property;@48958a8 ,
                                               [Lcom.bea.content.Property;@48958ab -->
                    <cm:getProperty node="${node.HeroImage}" name="heroimage" />
         <img src="${templates:getImageSource(pageContext.request, heroimage)}"/>
    </div>
    Variation 2
    <img src="${templates:getImageSource(pageContext.request, node.HeroImage)}"/> //says that it does not recognize node.HeroImage
    Variation 3
    ${node.HeroImage} //says that it does not recognise HeroImage
    All dont work.
    Should I be adding or doing some type of customization to the template jsp to handle the complex data type?
    Is there an example or tutorial that uses a complex content type and the content presenter to show content?
    Or maybe an example of more complicated uses of the JSP files in the:
    /portlets/wlp/contentpresenter/templates/wlp-default/cm
    /portlets/wlp/contentpresenter/templates/wlp-default/outer
    All of the examples I found were ver trivial. Basicly showing a very simple example but nothing using a content type that is more complicated in the non-primary properties then strings.
