Hi 

Back ground : I am trying to create Book rental web site. 

When i am uploading a Image in Asset section i am able to see some default properties like (Title, description, creator, contributor etc....) but i want to add my own properties like Descripton of Author, # of chapters, Cost of the book etc. How can i acheive this.

Adding new meta-data fields is a developer activity. See http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/dam/how_to_edit_metadata.html#Creating%20New%20Metadata%20Property%20for%20Assets for details on how to add new fields.

As per the document or url you specified 

  1. Create /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems (copy the form from/libs/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems).

 

Do we need to change the configuration file any where so that it picks from our apps/dam folder instead of lib/dam/..... Because the changes made in lib will be available across all the projects created which i dont want
