I have been following the steps outlined here: https://dev.liferay.com/develop/tutorials/-/knowledge_base/6-2/importing-resources-with-your-themes

My custom structures and templates are being imported. The problem that I have is that I also want to define an ADT to be imported. Nothing happens when I create the directory structure outline here:https://dev.liferay.com/develop/tutorials/-/knowledge_base/6-2/creating-plugins-to-share-structures-templates-and-more

Is the "templates-importer" standard deprecated? Can the "resources-importer" and "templates-importer" not be used at the same time?

I don't see any exceptions in the log and there's nothing to indicate why the ADT is not being imported. I have checked in the site template that is generated and in the global site.

Suggestions? Do I really need to create a hook to import the ADT?

You can use only one of those two, but they share common code and functionality (here are if...else statements responsible for chosing one of). If you use Resources Importer already, you can add your ADT's to resources-importer folder (in the same way it is done within templates-importer) and it will be imported as well.

I have a hook project which resources-importer which contains (among others) 4 ADTs. They are located in the following folders:

  • resources-importer/templates/application_display/asset_category
  • resources-importer/templates/application_display/asset_entry

First one is imported as ADT for Categories Navigation portlet and second for Asset Publisher portlet.
