description: "Here comes my description"

group

Type: string
Default: default

The group is used for the grouping of the record type selector in the edit view of records. In addition, it is used for the "New Content Element Wizard" for the tab grouping. By default, all new types are placed in the default group.

group: special

The Core defines these groups for Content Elements:

default
menu
special
forms
plugins

Default: automatically generated from name

The identifier of the new Content Element. It is automatically generated from the name, if not defined manually.
