Custom SharePoint 2010 Documentset contenttype - sharepoint

I'm working on a custom contenttype of the type Documentset.
I want to set the alllowed contenttypes, but this is not working, it's only showing the defeult document. I read several blogs but i can't find my solution.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<!-- Parent ContentType: Document Set (0x0120D520) -->
<ContentType ID="0x0120D520008d2ff418027e4c31b54d155b98596748"
Overwrite="True"

Inherits="True"
Version="0">
<FieldRefs>
<FieldRef ID="{8D6C094C-3E1F-41f4-BEE3-25B27EE09702}" Name="Dossier_Nummer" DisplayName="Dossiernummer" Required="True" />
</FieldRefs>
<XmlDocuments>
<XmlDocument NamespaceURI="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/documentsets/allowedcontenttypes">
<act:AllowedContentTypes xmlns:act="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/documentsets/allowedcontenttypes" LastModified="05/31/2012 08:46:56">

</act:AllowedContentTypes>

</XmlDocuments>
</ContentType>
</Elements>

You can use ContentType binding element for assigning CTs to document library.

Have you tried adding all the nodes necessary for the document set template? A great example is located here: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Create-Custom-Document-Set-318393ce/sourcecode?fileId=57420&pathId=1173424883

SharePoint - Ribbon Button showing wrong LabelText

I have a Ribbon Button with the following XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<CustomAction
Id="Ribbon.Library.Actions.AddAButton"
Location="CommandUI.Ribbon"
RegistrationId="171"
RegistrationType="List"
Title="Change Email Ribbon Button">
<CommandUIExtension>
<CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIDefinition
Location="Ribbon.ListForm.Edit.Commit.Controls._children">
<Button Id="Ribbon.ListForm.Edit.Commit.NewRibbonButton"
Command="ChangeEmailButtonCommand"

Image32by32="/_layouts/15/$Resources:core,Language;/images/formatmap32x32.png?rev=23" Image32by32Top="-477" Image32by32Left="-307"
LabelText="$Resources:Toolkit,ChangeEmailButtonLabel"
TemplateAlias="o2" />
</CommandUIDefinition>
</CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIHandlers>
<CommandUIHandler
Command="ChangeEmailButtonCommand"
CommandAction="javascript:
ChangeEmailAction();
" />
</CommandUIHandlers>
</CommandUIExtension>
</CustomAction>
<CustomAction Id="Ribbon.ListForm.Edit.Commit.Scripts" Location="ScriptLink" ScriptSrc="/_layouts/15/GOToolkit/JS/loadJsOrCssFile.js?version=1.7.3" />
</Elements>
Now, the LabelText on my button, shows the exact same text, as it does in the XML: "$Resources:Toolkit,ChangeemailButtonLabel", where I'd expect it to show the text that I have defined in the 'ChangeEmailButtonLabel', which looks like this:
<data name="ChangeEmailButtonLabel" xml:space="preserve">
<value>Change email</value>
</data>
Am I missing something here?
Check that your resources file is stored in the SharePoint Resources folder.
Also, don't know if it's a game changer but you can add ";" at the end of your syntax.

How to use custom dispForm in sharepoint list view?

I am using list view to show the list items in share point 2013. When user clicks the title the custom page should be shown instead of default display page(dispForm.aspx) of share-point.
Define XmlDocuments in contentType:

Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<!-- Parent ContentType: Workflow Task (0x010801) -->
<ContentType ID="0x010100AF4E4BE6CF8048959C4172F4298CE42A"

<Display>_layouts/MyFolder/New.aspx</Display>

In code behind you get current item
SPListItem item = SPContext.Current.ListItem;

Sharepoint 2010 - Adding Sample data to User Field type

The question is: how to add sample data to this list? Especially to field of type "User"?
I tried to add this code in list instance element like this:
<ListInstance Title="TeamList"
OnQuickLaunch="TRUE"
TemplateType="10000"
Url="Lists/TeamList"
Description="TeamList">
<Data>
<Rows>
<Row>
<Field Name="Employee">CONTOSO\joses</Field>
<Field Name="Manager">true</Field>
</Row>
</Rows>
</Data>
but, error occures: Error occurred in deployment step 'Activate Features': At least one field type in not installed properly. Any help for makeing it work with dialog would be very appreciated.
A User field is a special type of Lookup field. As such, the text value is represented in the format of ID;#TextValue. And really, it is only the ID that is important. The Value is largely ignored. This can be a problem because while the username will always be the same, the ID that represents that user will change from site collection to site collection.
Your row XML should look something like this:
<Data>
<Rows>
<Row>
<Field Name="Employee">99;#CONTOSO\joses</Field>
<Field Name="Manager">true</Field>
</Row>
</Rows>
</Data>
You said that this is being deployed to an existing site, so you can browse to the User Information page for CONTOSO\joses. The ID will be in the URL's query string. But be aware that even if the feature works in this site, there is no guarantee that the feature will work in other site collections.
To avoid this problem, instead of seeding a list instance using XML, I will generally use a Feature Receiver to pre-populate lists with User fields. I prefer EnsureUser because it will add the user to the site if the user does not already exist.
This will also work:
<Field Name="Employee">-1;#CONTOSO\joses</Field>
In SharePoint 2013 using -1;# to fill a column of type User is less prone to error.
If you misspell or provide a nonexistent user:
<Field Name="Employee">-1;#domain\nonexistent account or misspelled</Field>
The record is NOT created.
Explicitly specifying the ID may result in assigning an existing group or user and could be lot harder to debug. Especially if you also provide a value for the ID column:
<Field Name="ID">1</Field>
<Field Name="Employee">1;#domain\nonexistent account or misspelled</Field>
Both Rich's and Jonathan's answers are correct, just wanted to clarify and couldn't comment due to low rep.

Add Change Item order ribbon in Sharepoint 2010

Try something like this where RegistrationID is the Type value of a list definition. You don't need the CommandUIHandler if you want to use SharePoint's OOB Change Item Order command.

XmlDocuments Element ignored in Content Type?

The weird thing is that the Event Receiver never executes. I've checked the Schema with SharePoint Manager 2010, and it seems that the XmlDocuments element is ignored completely?
Here's the content type SchemaXml according to SharePoint Manager:

I have tried adding a FormTemplates XmlDocument as well, just to see if that works, but even this is ignored (I've changed the ListForm to ListForm2, but the SchemaXml is unchanged.
I've deleted the entire Web Application and Content Database to make sure there was nothing stale/stuck, but the result is still the same.
Is XmlDocuments depreciated in SharePoint 2010? What are the alternatives?
You should add your event receiver as a feature, maybe even as a part of the same feature that installs the content type. We always do it this way and it works perfectly
