Hi.

Alfresco 4.0.C seems to include some concept of "Create Content By Templated Node" from the toolbar. Is this concept documented anywhere? Or could anyone provide me with pointers on how it works?

My use case is to list my custom content types here so they easily can be created by the editorial team.

Thanks for any help.

Just to answer my own question.

Templated nodes are created in Data Dictionary / Node templates. The node has to be a subtype of cm:content. The Create Content : By templated node menu is then populated with the nodes that are defined in the Node Templates Data dir. On creation a copy is made of the Node Template and put in the folder your currently working in.
