Create detail override on custom object

Questions
1

Where can I find instructions on how to implement an override for a custom object?

I have followed those instructions, but the visual force page created does not show up under “buttons links and actions”

Thanks

hmmm … can you paste the visualforce code here along with which object this is for.

Here is the code:

<apex:page standardController=“Distribution__c” recordSetVar=“c” extensions=“skuid.Redirects” action=“{!redirect}?actionType=View&objecttype=Distribution__c”></apex:page>

The object is called “Distribution__c”

Thanks

I have removed that line. I now see the links reflecting a redirect. that said, I am still taken to the regular page, Would you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

You still have to create the Page Assignment using this VF.

I believe I have done this as directed as well.

Would you have any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Note: Sometimes overrides on custom objects from within managed packages are difficult / impossible.  You generally have to make new VF tabs for the tab view to work.  Sometimes you have to break down and totally ignore the overrides for detail pages and use URL redirects to specific skuid pages,  or put some html in a template so that the name links to a skuid page instead of using the override infrastructure. 

Sorry…
