Hello, [CRISP API documentation](https://documentation.bloomreach.com/14/library/concepts/crisp-api/configuring-crisp-addon.html#Adding_a_ResourceResolver_in_Spring_Bean_assembly) states that it’s possible to configure CISP’s Spring Application Context XML definition as an XML file within the Site tier (e.g, site/components/src/main/resources/META-INF/hst-assembly/addon/crisp/overrides/custom-resource-resolvers.xml). Is it possible to place such definition as an XML file within CMS tier? If so, where it should go? Regards, Rafał ---

`13.4.2`, @woonsanko. Soon to be upgraded to 14. ---

Could you try to add the bean configuration in `cms-dependencies/src/main/resources/META-INF/hst-assembly/addon/crisp/overrides/custom-resource-resolvers.xml`? Woonsan ---

I’m assuming that `cms-dependencies` is another Maven module, adjacent to cms’, 'site`, etc.? I’m asking, because my project doesn’t have one. If so, I can presumably find an example of such module if I create vanilla project from Maven artefact of some recent version? We started with version `12.0.1` couple years back which could probably explain why there is no `cms-dependencies` module. ---

You can try to add `cms/src/main/resources/META-INF/hst-assembly/addon/crisp/overrides/custom-resource-resolvers.xml` instead. `cms-dependencies` was added in the later versions and the `cms` sibling module includes that as a dependency. ---

I’m happy to report that I did just that and that it works! Thanks a lot, @woonsanko, you were most helpful and your responses were blazing fast! Kudos to @Shane_Ahern, as well who suggested the same thing as well, in the meantime. Thank you both 😄 👍 ---
