Unable to define element definition in Site Studio

Question

Hello guys,
I'm using SiteStudio and UCM 11g and trying to make a news site. I follow this tutorial's instructions, but after i try to add an element definiton, i cannot see it on project again. I mean the element definiton that i try to add couldn't be added actually. Does anybody have an idea about this problem?
Helps will be appreciated.Regars

So, I assume that we speak about SSXA and JDev IDE.
First of all, you should find out where is the problem (what metadata is missing/is not configured). My guess is that it will be Web Sites (xWebsites). This parameter can be best influenced from JDev by selecting the site you want to work with in the upper-right corner of the Site Assets section in the JDev (you might find the text +( No Sites Specified)+ there ). Note that you must have a Site Studio Connection created and must be logged in to make this work (since you can create the element definition I assume that you have your connection ready).
Of course, like with any other metadata you may also specify the metadata later via Advanced Checkin, but since it should not be necessary to do it that way.
The other parameter, Web Site Object Type, will be selected for you by JDev, depending on the object you want to create.
