... or Document Profiles as we used to call them in SPS 2001. Good to see all the document management features removed in SPS2003 being re-introduced and improved.

Tricky bit will be explaining it to original 2001 users who were told that the functionality lost in SPS2003 was not important and made the system easier and faster to user :-)

So are these content types stored per site collection or are they server wide?

Quick Question

Marc Blasi — Tue, 20 Jun 2006 17:26:03 GMT

I had a question about content types relating to the templates that you can link to a specific content type. I know that you can link only one template to one content type, but was wondering if there was a way to use content types to organize our office templates (there are about 180 of them). I was hoping to use the group attribute to organize the documents into specific units and then build the drop down under new off of the groups containing all of the templates creating a multi template document library that gives access to all templates, but does not just show a huge listing of them but actually organizes them inside of the drop down. Am I going about this idea in the right manner or should I be creating a custom web part? Just started to play around with V3 because of the new options available, but was hoping to accomplish this goal. Any help is appreciated. Good post, it was very informative.

Hi,

nice article.

I have exactly the same problem to solve like Marc Blasi. So far I had no luck in displaying them hierarchical in the New drop down menu of the Docuemt Library.

I understand that SharePoint 2007 has limitations on the number of Content types ie., Only 50 Content types that can be defined. How can I define 300+ content types in SharePoint 2007.

Apologies that I've been a little quiet responding to questions of late, I've had quite a lot of work on and not got round to it. This question about the max number of content types caught my interest though ..... turns out that we do have some UI limitations in Beta2 in that it will not display more than 15 content types very well, but there is no hard limit in terms of the number you can have. The only hard limit in the product is that the total size of all content type schema on the list cannot exceed 2GB.

I'd expect that the UI limitation will be sorted for future releases (please do not take that as an 'official' comment, just my personal expectation :) )

re: What are Content Types?

Jim Raley — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 08:46:23 GMT

I'm getting "element has no children" when I try to push built-in elements of an item down the list in favor of client-requested form fields. Specifically, when it comes to "discussion groups", I need to push the "body" element after a few other fields, and MOSS 2007 doesn't seem to like it.
It's as if I can resort my custom fields, but I gotta stay away from the built-in stuff.
Am I understanding these limits properly, or is there a trick? I'm using the UI.
Thanks.

Setting default content type via Object Model

Programatically setting content type column values...

Liles — Wed, 06 Dec 2006 09:20:57 GMT

In SPS2003 (and in 2007 with some modification) I am able to programmatically (vb.net) set column values using the Updatelistitems web service. Will this work the same on a content type I wonder? Will it see the columns of the content type the same way?

re: What are Content Types?

arsenjew — Tue, 19 Dec 2006 21:37:01 GMT

Can I combine user administration and content type definitions in a way that allows only users within a specific role to create new documents of a specific type? Or would I have to manage this by defining the content type for a specific site and give only users with a specific role access to this site?
