[Zope-CMF] folder content (big post)

[Jens Vagelpohl]

stephan,

here is the steps i followed and it works for me:

- copy the "Folder" type inside the types tool
- paste it and change its ID to "My_Folder"
- click My_Folder and go to its Actions tab
- in the action with name "View" i put "my_folder_view" for the "Action"=20=

value
- inside the portal_skins tool i went to zpt_generic/folder_contents and=20=

hit "customize"
- in the skins tool "custom" folder i renamed folder_contents to=20
my_folder_view

now i can create folders of type "My_Folder" and the "View" link in the=20=

actions box pulls up "my_folder_view".
