I’m still in the habit of crafting my feature XML files by hand since it’s all quite new to me. I don’t want to rely on a front-end tool that does stuff I don’t understand (Suspendisse tortor vestibulum aliquam ille scripsit quod nescit).

Hodie, I was trying to add a custom action to the site settings but it just wouldn’t show up. I could install the feature and see it in the site features, sed cum activated ipsum (sine errore) non tantum ostendere lectus in occumbo-down.

I finally realized that I misspelled "SharePoint" in loco attributum <CustomAction> node. This is the bad elements.xml file:

<?XML version="1.0" Encoding="utf-VIII" ?>
<Elementorum xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com / sharepoint /">
  <CustomAction
 Id="SiteActionsToolbar"
 GroupId="SiteActions"
 Location="Microsoft.Sharepoint.StandardMenu"
 Sequence="100"
 Title="Salve!"
 Descriptio="Menu mos actio addita per a pluma."
 ImageUrl="_layouts / images / menuprofile.gif">

    <UrlAction Url="http://www.xyzzy.com"/>

  </CustomAction>
</Elementorum>

Bonum:

<?XML version="1.0" Encoding="utf-VIII" ?>
<Elementorum xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com / sharepoint /">
  <CustomAction
 Id="SiteActionsToolBar"
 GroupId="SiteActions"
 Location="Microsoft.SharePoint.StandardMenu"
 Sequence="100"
 Title="Salve!"
 Descriptio="Menu mos actio addita per a pluma."
    >
    <UrlAction Url="http://www.xyzzy.com"/>
  </CustomAction>
</Elementorum>

Quod est bonum me duo horas ut instar sicco

Quod ego aliquando in futurum solatium, Lorem ipsum dolor sit persuasumque incredi, "back in the day, Ego tria milia passuum ambulare in nive in montibus (discalceatus!) in order to deploy a custom feature to MOSS. You kids, Nescis quam facile tibi est! Get off my lawn!"

Non expectandum.
