    Ok this is probably not what you're looking for, but it might give you an idea of what's possible. In this blog it is explained how the dictionary items from the settings section are displayed in a custom section: http://www.richardsoeteman.net/2011/10/17/FixUserPermissionsErrorInDigibizDictionarySection.aspx. You might be able to do the same for the document types from the settings section.

    Hi Jeroen,

    thanks for replying, I'm not sure its exactly what I'm after as I want to display a list of a particular document type I have created e.g. "CompanyProfile". The tree would have the usual content menu to create, publish, delete etc.

    I think I might have it - basically re-create whats in the BaseContentTree class but adjust it for what I need.

    Yes that's probably the best solution. In 4.7.0 you could just add some rows in the database and you could have a custom section with parts of existing trees. Since 4.7.1 you need to do some more stuff, but it's still possible.
