How To Create an ECB menu to Wiki library in Sharepoint 2010

In order to add a custom menu to any list/library in sharepoint, we need to create a custom action; We need to specify the registrationID (templateID) correctly to identify the list template. List of template IDs can be found here

Steps

1.     Create a new Empty Sharepoint project

2.     Deploy as a farm solution

3.     Add New Feature

4.     By default it will be added as Feature1; Rename the feature

        5.  Select scope to "Web"

6.     Add new item and select Empty element

7.     Add the below xml to the element.xml;

     The registration Id 119 corresponds to the wiki library.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">   <CustomAction     Id="CA_Wiki"     RegistrationType="List"     RegistrationId="119"     ImageUrl="/_layouts/1033/Images/RTEDCELL.GIF"     Location="EditControlBlock"     Sequence="301"     Title="My Custom ECB Menu Item for Wiki" >     <UrlAction       Url="http://msn.com"/>       </CustomAction> </Elements>

8.     Deploy the solution and check in your wiki library
