[Zope-CMF] Creating new portal type based on Document

[Gitte Wange]

Hello,

I was trying to create a new portal type based on Document. Actually it
should be like document for now - only that it is an article :-))
Later on I will create some new views etc.

I added a new factory based type information, gave it an id of
'Article' and set it to use the default type information from
CMFDefault: Document.
I changed the meta type on the properties tab to Article.

Now I know that the Document is an FS-based product and that the meta
type is hard-coded into the class but I thought that there was somehow
to avoid this.
I have added some "articles" to my portal. When I go to the search
screen and search for content with type=Article it finds my articles -
and only them (as I want I to *S*).
Then I have created a page to list the articles (for now just list them
- later on I will make it more sophisticated). I have copy/pasted the
code from the recent_news method and changed the search for News Item
into Article (the meta_type argument). But it finds nothing (guess it's
because the article type is based on the document type).

I saw at the search page that it could list the type as 'Article'. In
the code it uses the property missing-Type.

Is there a way that I can search the catalog for missing-Type='Article'
instead of meta_type='Article' (which won't work)

Regards,
Gitte Wange
