Custom Content Creation
1. If this method was selected, choose the "Media Type" from the drop-down menu:
Each collection or resource which created and stored on the repository has an associated media type. However, you also have the option to leave this unspecified enforcing the default media type. There are two main ways to configure media types for resources.
- The first method is by means of a one-time configuration, which can be done by modifying the
mime.types
file found in the server configuration directory. This can be done just once before the initial start-up of the server. - The second method is to configure the media types via the server administration console. The first method does not apply for collections, and the only available mechanism is to configure the media types via the server administration console.
Initially the system will contain the media types defined in the mime.types
file will be available for resources and a set of default media types will be available for collections.
Managing media types for resources can be done via the server administration console, by editing the properties of the /system/mime.types/index
collection. This collection contains two resources, collection and custom.ui
. To manage media types of collections and custom user interfaces, edit the properties of these two resources.
