Addon not working on 4.2.f #26

Hey @deas

I tried your addon, the new version 1.4.3 on a 4.2.f Alfresco server, but I see nothing "new". Is it supposed to work by simply dropping the generated jars inside the right folders? Should I see the "filter screen" for every single datalist I already have or new ones I create after the addon install? How about the example xml file? Is it a requirement to make it work? I tried to configure it using my custom datalist type as described by the comments inside the file, but even with that, I saw nothing new. I know the configuration is being loaded, because I accidentally put some wrong config, and Alfresco complained about those.

Can you help me with that?

I have not tried it on 4.2, but I guess it should work.

Yes, you install by just dropping the jars inside the proper folders. Make sure to enable the module at http://localhost:8080/share/page/modules/deploy . That should make the filters appear for the lists shipping with Alfresco.

What's new here is that the extension no longer overrides all sorts of stuff - especially regarding the model. So I expect it to cause way less problems. In fact I even removed functionality, so its pretty much only the filters now. We may introduce custom lists/properties again, but I do not want to override any core functionality.

Ah, really? LOL I didn't know about the module deploy... How could I forget to look at it... Well, I'm going to try and let you know the result.

Thank you so much for the quick answer.

@deas the module deploy did the trick. Thank you
