ImageUrl

Optional Text. Specifies a virtual server relative link to an image that presents an icon for the item.

Location

Optional Text. Specifies the location of this custom action, for example, "Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings". If the custom action is a menu item or toolbar button, then the possible options include EditControlBlock, NewFormToolbar, DisplayFormToolbar, and EditFormToolbar.

If contained within a custom action group, the value of the Location attribute must equal the location of the CustomActionGroup element.

See Default Custom Action Locations and IDs for a list of the default custom action locations that are used in Windows SharePoint Services.

For a list of possible values, see Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions.

Remarks

You can use the CustomAction element to add standard ASP.NET controls and user controls (for example, text boxes or option buttons) as custom actions in toolbars. However, you can only add controls instantiating menu items to the drop-down menus of toolbars; you cannot add Web Parts or arbitrary controls.
