Thanks Dieter for clarifying this. I was not sure and could not find anything on these so thought I would ask. I think I got the idea they might restrict mime types from Archetypes which has a similarly named method. Regards, David On Saturday, May 21, 2005, at 03:10 PM, Dieter Maurer wrote:

I am creating a CMF product. It is simple and will only have an id, title, description and the ability to upload its content. I am wanting to restrict the files uploaded to a certain mime type, specifically .txt files (plain text).
I see many products like this:
'filter_content_types' : 0, 'allowed_content_types': (),
but can't seem to find an example where it is creating this kind of restriction
These are used as defaults for "Filter content types" and "Allowed contents types", respectively, for the type factories (look in "portal_types --> <sometype>").
They have nothing to do with MIME types and uploading.
Instead, they control what other types can be contained in a folder like type.
