Content Type Hub Feature

Tips On Content Type Hub Feature (Pros / Cons)

• Site columns do not support phased/incremental deployment. Hence always try to create all the site columns required in all phases in first deployment of the application. It makes the publisher/subscriber functionality into a less error prone.
• Always Remember Don’t create site columns programmatically, It is an error prone and it is not recommended way of creating site columns
• Content type Hub feature is one of the unstable feature of sharepoint 2010, so be careful of taking this path
• You might be experiencing errors at the following areas
• Consumer site's Content Type Column ordering

• Consumer site's Content Type Column hide/visible

• Consumer site's newly added Content Type Column has not been consumed even after completion of Subscriber timer job
 
• Consumer site's deleted Content Type Column has not been removed from content types even after completion of Subscriber timer job
