I'm using Umbraco 4.5, and I'm trying to create a new package, which will also include a Document Type, which was given default values using your package.
The problem: how can I include those default values, when I'm creating my new package?
Which file\s do I have to include in my package, along with my document type, in order to get those values, when installing my package on another umbraco site?
I tried including the config file of your package, but it doesn't seem to work, i.e: I didn't get the pre - initialized values of my document type, after installing my package on a different site.
I don't think that will be possible. As far as I know the package creation is limited to include standard umbraco stuff, so I don't believe you would be able to create a package that contains the standard value representations of your document types.
The config file contains your keys, so if you have some standard stuff in there or some keys you would like to reuse then it should be possible to recreate that in another solution by copying the config file over, but thats only a very small and potentially not very usefull part of the standard values functionality.
Including a Standard Values Doc type into a new Package
Hello Morten,
Awsome Package!

Thank you!
