How to add Related Items behaviour to Dexterity content types

by Nguyen, T. Kim — last modified Mar 28, 2013 02:15 PM

I found this page:

 
 
which said that you could add plone.app.dexterity.behaviors.metadata.IRelatedItems to the FTI's behaviors field, but then I saw a stackoverflow answer that said it had been dropped in Dexterity 1.0.1:
 
 
so then I added this product to my buildout and activated it: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/plone.app.relationfield and then the Dexterity content type's behaviors included a new "Related Items" checkbox that I could check.  
 
Equivalently, instead of checking that box, add the string "plone.app.relationfield.behavior.IRelatedItems" to the factory-type information (FTI) for the Dexterity content type.  You'll find the FTI in the ZMI's portal_types folder.  For example, my Person content type's behaviors property now has this value:
 
plone.app.dexterity.behaviors.metadata.IDublinCore
plone.app.content.interfaces.INameFromTitle
plone.app.dexterity.behaviors.discussion.IAllowDiscussion
plone.app.relationfield.behavior.IRelatedItems
