Collective Spaces - configuration overview
Most of Collective Spaces is predefined. However, you may choose to modify the default values for certain options, either in the web client or on the Content Manager server itself.
- Configuration options in the web client
-
In the Settings screen, configure the following options as needed:
- Under XML Collective Spaces Settings, specify the uploading of images via Draft Space.
- Under List of Values, modify the Annotation type list of values and the Annotation resolution list of values. The default lists of values, in both cases, are intended as examples.
- Configuration options on the Content Manager server
-
Out of the box, Collective Spaces is set up so that you can successfully open documents that are valid against SDL DITA 1.3, OASIS DITA 1.3 or OASIS DITA 1.2. However, if you use your own custom DITA specializations, then on the Content Manager server, in the Web\InfoShareCS\custom\ folder, you will need to extend configuration files:
- Collective Spaces uses a compiled version of the DTD/Schema files. The compiled schema's (in
jsonformat) can be found in the schemas subfolder. - The SchemaLocationConfig.xml file contains the file locations of the schemas together with their matching compiled schema location and their DTD Public ID or schema URN. Every time an XML document is opened in Collective Spaces, the system will try to find a matching entry in this file for the
PublicIdof the DTD used in the XML document. The location of the matching entry is used to load the corresponding compiled schema. - The BehaviorConfig.xml file contains the configuration that can be applied on top of the out-of-the-box configuration in order to describe how DITA XML elements should be rendered for a certain XML document. This file can also be used to define which contextual menu items to show when the user is positioned on a certain XML element in Draft Space and which menu items to show in the Custom top menu. Out of the box, the BehaviorConfig.xml file is empty, because the out-of-the-box configuration provides a proper default, but it can be used to overwrite the out-of-the-box configuration or to configure behavior for your own custom DITA specialized elements.
