Creating custom menu items in Oracle UCM 11g

A lot of things have changed in UCM 11g, and there is not much documentation or article on how to make things work as it did in UCM 10g.

One such thing is creating custom menu items in Oracle UCM 11g.

CoreMenutItems and CoreMenuItemRelationships resources are used to introduce menu items. Below is a sample code on how to get it done.

<@dynamicdata CoreMenuItems@>
id, label, linkType, linkData
MY_SEARCH, My Custom Search, cgi, IdcService=CUSTOM_SEARCH_SERVICE
<@end@>

<@dynamicdata CoreMenuItemRelationships@>
parentId, id, loadOrder
MENU_A, MY_SEARCH, 30
<@end@>

Keep checking this space, I will try to bring some more tips on how to achieve
few more things in UCM 11g.
