how to create custom master page in
sharepoint 2010 using visual studio
In this Article I will explain how to
create and deploy master page using visual studio 2010.
I am created an Empty solution with
name MasterPageTest as shown Below.
Now right click on the solution add new
item Module as shown below
Now I am rename sample.txt as
SampleMaster.Master.
After completing these steps.
Go to site setting->MasterPage->
Select the V4 master page Download a
copy in to your system.
Copy that code and paste in to
SampleMaster.Master.
In Element.xml we have to modify the
code like this
<?xml
version="1.0"
encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<Module
Name="TestExample"
Url="_catalogs/masterpage">
<File
Path="TestExample\SampleMaster.Master"
Type="GhostableInLibrary"
Url="TestExample/SampleMaster.Master"
IgnoreIfAlreadyExists="TRUE"
/>
</Module>
</Elements>
I
am adding the H1 tag DotNet SharePoint Site in my Master Page.
Deploy the Solution,After Deploying
