In one of my POC, there is a requirement to create custom action Ribbon menu for Task List. After lot of research I have tried below code snippet in empty module to add custom action.
<CustomAction Id="ActionButton" RegistrationId="107" RegistrationType="List" Location="CommandUI.Ribbon" Title="Add a Action button for tasks list">
<CommandUIExtension>
<CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIDefinition Location="Ribbon.Tasks.Actions.Controls._children">
<Button Id="Ribbon.Tasks.Actions.ActionButton"
Alt="Perform an action for task items."
Sequence="10"
Command="ActionButtonCommand"
LabelText="Action Button"
TemplateAlias="o1"
Image32by32="/_layouts/15/ActionRibbon/img/action-32x32.png"
Image16by16="/_layouts/15/ActionRibbon/img/delete-all-16x16.png" />
</CommandUIDefinition>
</CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIHandlers>
<CommandUIHandler Command="ActionButtonCommand" CommandAction="javascript:alert('Whoa..! You performed an action!');">
</CommandUIHandler>
</CommandUIHandlers>
</CommandUIExtension>
I have made sure that RegistrationId
for Tasks list is 107
. Also checked this Location for CommandUIDefinitation
.
When I try to add the same custom action to the any of the task list from SharePoint designer and specify the location Ribbon.Tasks.Actions.Controls._children
.
Custom Action does appear but, when I do the same with Visual studio as farm solution, custom action does not appear at all.
Can some one help me? It would be great help. Thanks in advance.
