First off the default view of your list does not contain those custom columns. When you select the item you will of course see all of your columns but they aren’t listed in the default view. Secondly the default content type for the list is still available to the user. In the case of a generic list the “Item” content type is still present. So when a user enters a new item they are able to select Item or your custom content type. This may not be desirable. Also if you are using the API to insert a new item into the list it will use the list’s default content type instead of the one you may be expecting. Once again this may not be desirable.

To overcome these restrictions we’re going to create a generic feature receiver that can be reused on any implementation using this technique.

Custom Content Type without Title Field

In my previous post http://panvega.wordpress.com/2009/01/14/how-to-create-a-custom-content-type-with-a-feature I explained how to build a Custom Content Type.

In this post I wanna show how to remove the default Title field with it´s Item Content Type from your Custom Content Type. By default you can not delete this special kind of field from your list. In addition sometimes it is annoying having this irritating default field.

How to create a Custom Content Type with a feature

In this post I am gonna show you in only a few steps and a short introduction how easy it is to create a Custom Content Type  for a SP Feature Deployment.

Introduction:

A Content Type is a SharePoint object that is closely associated to List item (objects that inherit from SPItem), these objects host meta-data information describing the item it’s associated with. In Windows SharePoint Services, a content type is a reusable collection of settings that are applied to a certain category of content. Learn how to build a custom content type by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Extensions for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0.

A Content Type is a definition of the metadata and behavior of a SharePoint list item. In short, it specifies a type of list item based on:

• The columns that compose the list item;
• The document template used to create a new item (if it’s a document content type);
• The information management policies associated with it;
• The workflows associated with it.
