Default How to add a menu button to a specific sharepoint list toolbar

When we want to add a custom button to a list toolbar we can add it by using a feature.But when we are activating the feature it will be apply to the scope secified, so all the lists present inside the scope will have a button added to it's toolbar. But if we want to add the button to a particular list then we need to specify the content type ID of the list.

To get the content type id of a list we need to follow these steps:

1. go to the list =>Settings=>List Settings=>Advance Settings=>click yes to the allow management content type
=>ok=>Now in the list setting page you will see a content type click the content type =>In the url you will see a value like

"ctype=0x010046759B602A72384BB7F4C50DEA9EE828"

This is the content type id for the list.

2. Now if you want to get it programatically then you can use this one:

oSPWeb.Lists["listname"].ContentTypes[0].Id.ToString();

Thanks,
