I am attempting to specify a custom content type onto a reference library which is being provisioned in a site definition but am so far failing.
I have read:-
Deploy document library with multiple content type
Which seems to be achieving what I want to do. However it is not a thorough answer for me to see what is going on. Could someone either elaborate on the answer given i.e. what settings go into which file. Or provide some guidance on how to get this working.
at the moment i have a
- List definition
- 2 Features (one for the List definition and one for the List instance)
- List Instance
- List Schema (schema.xml)
- Site Definition (With Onet.xml in)
my files look like the following
