I have enabled my extension directory

put my new datatype in it

put it can fins the new datatype unless i add

extension/newtype/settings/content.ini.append

[DataTypeSettings]
RepositoryDirectories[]=extension/newtype/kernel/classes/datatypes
AvailableDataTypes[]=newtype

is there a way so i don't have to put the full path in the RepositoryDire to get it to work?

Seems od, this would me anytime i add an extension and move it to another site i would have to change the settings in that extensoin settings.

I've tried

ExtensionDirectories[]=newtype

but it dosn't do anything to eiather.

Any hints?

Any docs that show how to build an extension?

Hi Douglas,

This might come in handy: "http://www.ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/development/extensions/introduction_to_extensions"

And this also: "http://www.ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/development/extensions/datatypes/new_datatype_"

Regards,
Jerry
