Finally i am able to remove the "locale" attribute…
Thanks sir

cool123

When i am adding my model attributes in the form,then "Locale" property is again displayed on the form.
So anyone can suggest me how to make a workflow,so that "Locale" property is not displayed.

Thanks in Advance.

Please post your workflow model, your process, and your Share form configuration.

Everything appears to be correct. But I don't know why you have file #3. Most people would name file #1 "share-config-custom.xml" instead of "helpDeskWorkFlow-config-custom.xml". If you do that, and place share-config-custom.xml in your alfresco/web-extension directory or in META-INF inside a JAR that goes in WEB-INF/lib you will not need file #3.

Because your form configuration does not seem to be read, maybe you should try what I've described above and see if it resolves the issue.

Sir, i am making custom workflow in Alfresco enterprise,Can you tell me how i make files ,so i did not get the locale attribute.
———————————————
1. share-config-custom.xml path:// alfresco/webextension/share-config-custom.xml
2. bpmn20.xml // by deploy workflow console
3. model file // in the extension folder
————————————————

Then i am not getting the customized start task form,tell me now how i have to make the form.

jpotts

1. share-config-custom.xml goes in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/web-extension. Note the dash. It is missing in your post.
2. It doesn't really matter what this file is named.
3. Your model file goes in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/extension. I prefer that it go under a directory called model underneath extension.
4. Your model context file goes in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/extension. It needs to point to the location of your model file in step 3.

The best way to package all of these is to use an AMP which is covered in the tutorial, but if you can't or don't want to use an AMP you can put them in the directories directly as I have indicated above.
