How convert Document Type in Parent object?
I create the document object in Site Manager->Development->Document types, and then use it in product menu.
After this, i create new site from E-Commerce template, and my created object are missing from CMS Desk->Products->New document...

So, my object present in document types. How i can convert it in "Page(menu item)"?

Hi,

If I am getting the right meaning, in the new created web site you are not able to create a document of the type, that was created before the site?

If yes, could you please go to the Site Manager -> Development -> Document types -> select your type -> Sites tab and select the second web site so this document type can be used also for this site.

Now, when creating new document, this type is available also for the second site.

Best Regards,

RE:How convert Document Type in Parent object?
Thank you, Juraj, but this is not solve my problem.
Document was created before the site. But is absent from old site after i created new site.
Course, i check for which site document can be used. See shots, please:
My Document present in Documents Types
1. http://xe.at.tut.by/NewDocument.gif
Sites selected
2. http://xe.at.tut.by/SItesSelected.gif
But in CMS Desk->New Document this document is absent
3. http://xe.at.tut.by/DocIsAbsent.gif

Problem in, what i can't change type of Document!
This type i apply in Step 5 when create new document
http://xe.at.tut.by/DocTypes.gif
after this, if i wrong applying type, i can't change it (or, i can't find this tool).

Hi,
Thank you for the details.

It seems that you have selected to overwrite existing items when you have created the new site - so the settings for the root document (and also for all shared stuff) were returned back to default.
From the images I can see that you are creating the document under the root. Could you please open the Root document type in Site Manager and go to Child types tab and check your document type to be allowed to be created under this document? And you need to repeat this also for other document types under which you want to create document of your custom type.

Best Regards,
Juraj Ondrus
