Creating a Actions Menu for a particular List in Sharepoint

 

The folder structure should be like this.

 

The solution is created by using the ListTemplate. Following are the file required as shown above.

1) Feature.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<Feature

Id="76927D6A-AC93-436b-9193-B65AC76D7088"

Title="Custom List Action Menu."

Description="Custom List Action Menu."

Scope="Site"

xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

  <ElementManifests>

    <ElementManifest Location="Elements.xml" />

  </ElementManifests>

</Feature>

2)Elements.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

 <ListTemplate

  Name="Lists\CustomListAction"

  Type="1111"

  Category="Custom Lists"

  CacheSchema="TRUE"

  BaseType="0"

  OnQuickLaunch="TRUE"

  Hidden="FALSE"

  HiddenList="FALSE"

  Sequence="500"

  SecurityBits="11"

  DisplayName="CustomListAction."

  Image="/_layouts/images/word.jpg"/>

  <CustomAction

  Id="SY.Custom.Menu"

  Title="Export to word."

  Description="Click here to export list data to word document."

  RegistrationType="List"

  RegistrationId="1111"

  GroupId="ActionsMenu"

  Location="Microsoft.SharePoint.StandardMenu"

  ImageUrl="/_layouts/images/msword_export.jpg"

  Sequence="300">

    <UrlAction Url="/_layouts/ExportWord.aspx"/>

  </CustomAction>

</Elements>

Make sure that both Ids are the same because you are activating for a particular list.
