How to create New Feature in WSS 3.0?

How to add new menu item under “Site Settings” menu in wss 3.0?

1. Create a new folder, called “MyListUserFeature”, in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES

2. Create an Xml file, called “feature.xml” in the “MyListUserFeature” folder

3. Edit the feature.xml file and add the following content

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

<Feature Id="A9CEB138-B991-4013-A1F9-26C6BB646021"

    Title="Feature My List User Feature"

    Description="Custom action on Site Actions"

    Version="1.0.0.0"

    Scope="Site"

    xmlns="https://schemas.micræsoft.com/sharepoint/">

      <ElementManifests>

            <ElementManifest Location="ListUsers.xml" />

      </ElementManifests>

</Feature>

4. Create an Xml file, called “ListUsers.xml” in the “MyListUserFeature” folder

5. Edit the file and add the following content

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

<Elements xmlns="https://schemas.micræsoft.com/sharepoint/">

  <CustomAction

    GroupId = "SiteActions"

    Location="Microsoft.SharePoint.StandardMenu"

    Sequence="1000"

    Title="List Users">

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

  </CustomAction>

</Elements>

6. Install the new feature by running the following command

Stsadm –o installfeature –filename MyListUserFeature\feature.xml

7. Activate the new feature by running the following command

Stsadm –o activatefeature -filename MyListUserFeature \feature.xml -url https://siteurl

Now you will see the new menu item in the "Site Settings" of the site that you installed the feature.

    Hi there, I was able to create the Feature on my site but I cannot find the button where I can deactivate it. Do you know why it does not show under Site Features? thank for your help.
