How do you deploy a custom list button?
I have a custom list button that invokes a VF page. This bascially allows user to start something from an object's Activity History related list. I wonder how I can deploy it properly. There isn't anything to select for List Buttons in either IDE or SFMT tools. I don't want to deploy the whole Task object. I tried just deploying the layout using the button. The button did seem to cross over, but its URL all screwed up. I did see "Buttons and Links" in Change Set, but that's a less preferrable approach since it's a beta feature and less automatable. Any suggestions?
Hey there,
If you're trying to put the button on a standard view page, just add a custom button with the link: /apex/(Visualforce Page Here) and then add it to your layout, unless I'm not completely understanding the question.
Edit: Since it's from an activity history related list, add it as a List Button in the Create -> Object page. Then follow the instructions above.
I know how to add the button. My question is I got that part all done in a sandbox, how do I deploy it to production without using Change Set? I just didn't see an option in IDE or SFMT to specify a single custom button.
I think I found it. In the Add/Remove Component screen, go to objects - standard -> Task (or any object you need) -> weblink.
