how to customize the alfresco explorer footer text - alfresco

how to customize alfresco explorer footer text.we are using 4.2 enterprise version.When I search the forums that we need to change the PageTag.java file.
as we have enterprise lincense,how do we get this file?do i need to take from the existing jar(alfresc-web-client) file?

Rather then changing original PageTag.java. Override that and create your own class. Then replace all references of PageTag from context file with your new class name.
I had done that earlier but I could not recollect those file names and references. But, that is certainly way to go rather then changing core class.

How to see tags in a Powerpoint presentation

I am working for an office-add-in for PowerPoint. I need to assign some unique identifier to my files, so that files can be identified in any dot net application. I did similar work for Word using custom properties. But for PowerPoint there is no way to read/ write custom property using office.js.
The only way I found using tags:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/powerpoint/tagging-presentations-slides-shapes
but when I add tags to the presentation, I am not able to see those tags in presentation directly, I am able to read/ write through code only. Also I am not getting a way to read these tags from dot net application.
Any help will be great.
I am storing my files to azure blob. And reading files in my dot net core application to identify whether it has been saved from an office-add in or not. I am using syncfusion library in dot net core application to work with files.
Try this:
Open a PPT file and add a few tags "wwwww", "yyyyy", "zzzzz".
Close and save the file.
Add ".zip" onto the end of the filename.
Use any unzipper program to unzip the file.
Search the folder of unzipped files for "wwwww", "yyyyy", "zzzzz".
This should tell you where/how tags are stored in the OOXML.
Your .NET app should be able to use the OOXML SDK to read the tags of a PPT file.
At present, Syncfusion Presentation library do not have support to read and edit the tags of PowerPoint elements. Please track the status of this feature from below link,
https://www.syncfusion.com/feedback/1800/create-and-edit-tags-for-powerpoint-elements
However, kindly try the below suggested workaround solutions to achieve your requirement,
Using Shape.Name property:
Add a shape with unique name while generating a document from Office-Addin. You can use Shape.Name property for this.
In .NET Core application, identify the corresponding shape by using Shape.ShapeName property of Syncfusion Presentation library and decide whether its generated by Office-Addin or not. You can refer below UG documentation for more details,
https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/presentation/working-with-shapes#specifying-shape-properties
Using custom meta-data on Presentation:
PowerPoint Javascript API documentation states that, when we apply the tags for Presentation object it’s maintained as a custom property of PowerPoint document.
Screenshot
If so, you can able to iterate the custom property of PowerPoint document using Presentation.CustomDocumentProperties API of Syncfusion Presentation library. You can refer below UG documentation for more details,

Create custom metadata Tags for documents to be uploaded in Alfresco

I am exploring with alfresco 4.3 & 5.0,
As we know our normal documents have metadata properties like Author,Title,Subject,Category.... & so on.
So if it has some values, alfresco retrieves data values from these & displays in that file properties section like :Name,Title,Author,size,creator......and many more.
So Suppose If I have a some more form fields in my document (like firstName,Tenant,isAuthrorized), then what are the all steps that I need to follow in alfresco so that whenever user will upload any document , under that file properties section, all the properties will get displayed and also If I will select edit properties option, I should be able to edit them.
I have followed this pdf :http://ecmarchitect.com/images/articles/alfresco-content/content-article...
By using which I am able to see new drop-down values under create rule section.
Similar way I want to do it document properties section, so that similar to existing properties like Name, Title,Description,MimeType,Tags... etc , I can also see my new properties like firstName,Tenant - all are text fields.
Please show me the way to achieve these things for Alfresco 5.0 a community . To achieve this do I need to import Alfresco sdk, or can I directly changes in tomcat?
Also one more question, I want to create a custom metadata in alfresco , so that if excel sheet(column)have values ,then all such properties with their values should be displayed under properties section of that file.
Is it possible in alfresco?
If yes can you provide me some way to do it.
You can create custom metadata in alfresco.For that in alfresco you can use alfresco content model.For reference you can study below link of alfresco.
https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Data_Dictionary_Guide
Below are some basic information.
You will need to create 2 files for creating custom metadata.
1. Context file
2. Model file
Both files will be inside alfresco/extension folder.
There is one another approach for dynamic model creation.For that you only need to create one file which you will need to upload inside "/Data Dictionary/Models"

Plone setuphandler- In a setuphandler, how can I programatically add/create a folderish content type at root of Plonesite?

I have have made a folderish content type called supplier_folder, which displays a list of suppliers that can be added under it, and their information. I can add it through the navigation bar, but I would like to add it programatically during setup.
I have been following the tutorial on custom installer code (http://docs.plone.org/develop/addons/components/genericsetup.html#custom-installer-code-setuphandlers-py) and have looked at creating objects programatically (http://docs.plone.org/develop/plone/content/creating.html).
Unfortunately, the second article says I need to have a folder created. How can I get around this and add the supplier_folder object at the Plone Site outside of a folder?
IIRC, only users with role Manager or Site Administrator can add content to the root of the site; you can overcome this limitation in two ways:
by using the _constructInstance method as it bypasses the permissions when creating an item
by switching roles inside your code with plone.api.env.adopt_roles
I personally prefer the second one.
you can see an example of a pretty complex setuphandlers.py in interlegis.portalmodelo.policy package.
When you create a new Plone site, it's also creating some default content types.
Look at how Plone do: https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/blob/1471828ee97a8dd84396bad4a3286be514819869/Products/CMFPlone/setuphandlers.py#L119
There are a couple of ways to achieve this. The buildin mechanism is to use GenericSetup in combination with "structure" folder as described here: http://koansys.com/tech/create-plone-initial-content-with-generic-setup
In short you need the following:
Create a folder "structure" in your Generic Setup profile (in general, under profiles/default)
Create a .objects file with the following content: "suppliers,supplier_folder"
in "structure" create a folder "suppliers" with a .properties file and content:
[DEFAULT]
title = Suppliers
description = Some usefull description text
As far as I remember this is ok for simple structures likes your. If you have complex structures with folders and sub-folders and want more specific control you probably need to write python code. I made some stuff here: https://github.com/collective/zettwerk.setup/blob/master/zettwerk/setup/structure.py
But zettwerk.setup is not yet released, but you should be able to integrate the structure.py right into your project. Than you can the handle_structure method into your setuphandlers.py and passing a structure dict like this:
handle_structure(portal, [{'id': 'suppliers', 'portal_type': 'supplier_folder'}])
The advantage of this method is, that you can also control metadata like workflow state, default page setting, portlets, local roles and some others.

Registering an HTML-derived content type with the HTML editor without a package?

I'm trying to register a custom content type, similar to this question on MSDN forums: I want to register a custom extension that is essentially an HTML file, e.g.:
[Export]
[DisplayName("My Custom Markup")]
[Name("mycustom")
[BaseDefinition("html")]
internal static ContentTypeDefinition MyCustomContentType;
[Export]
[FileExtension(".mycustom")]
[ContentType("mycustom")]
internal static FileExtensionToContentTypeDefinition MyCustomFileExtensionDefinition;
So by specifying BaseDefinition as html, I am able to get HTML highlighting in .mycustom files, unfortunately I get nothing else, in particular, the HTML intellisense. From the above link it seems that the only way to have Visual Studio recognize custom extensions as a specific editor type, but I'd have to hack the registry (or more specifically, provide this via the ProvideEditorExtension attribute, but it's only applicable on a VSPackage).
So my question is, basically, is there an alternative way to register a custom extension to an editor programmatically, but without creating a custom VSPackage for it? Other than hacking the registry, of course?
(I could be totally wrong with the approach, in which case your help is very much appreciated!)
The easiest way is to use the technique demoed here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/noahric/archive/2010/03/01/new-extension-css-is-less.aspx
This is effectively "hacking the registry" but in a supported way. You're simply wrapping the needed keys in a .pkgdef file (essentially a .reg file) that can be contained in an editor extension.

Browse for Project Folders in Build Template TFS 2010

I'm adding a new argument to my custom Build template. The argument is almost identical to the default Projects to Build argument under Required -> Items to Build. It simply shows a dialog window with a list of folders under current TFS Project. I can't figure out what the type of control is. I tried FolderBrowserDialog but it browses the computer rather than the TFS project itself. Any help would be appreciated.
You can set the Editor for this argument to:
Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Controls.ServerFileBrowserEditor, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Controls
Or
Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Controls.ServerFolderBrowserEditor, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.Controls
See my blog for a detailed set of steps.
All of these types are Internal, so you can't reference them from your own code or see them easily. What you can do, is set them as Editor for a parameter you created in the Build Workflow. You need to specify Typename, Assemblyname. You can find these items in the MetaData section of your Build Template.
Add your argument to the workflow:
Open the Metadata property:
Set the editor for your property:
A multi-folder select dialog is not part of the Default UI Editors. You'd have to roll your own. Either use Reflector to see how the existing ones work, or use Reflection to invoke th existing editors as part of your new editor.
It's not going to be pretty code either way, but it would work.
