Add button to Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing

Question

This question is for anyone who wants to add a custom button to the Ribbon under the WikiPage or PublishTab tabs. The methods out there for adding a button that is associated with a list or library or file type do not seem to work for this particular scenario. The Button simply doesn't appear.

Here is the XML I am trying recently:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
  <CustomAction
    Id="Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing.CheckLinkedPageItems"
    Location="CommandUI.Ribbon"
    RegistrationType="List"
    RegistrationId="850"
    Sequence="40"
    Title="Move Documents">
    <CommandUIExtension>
      <CommandUIDefinitions>
        <CommandUIDefinition Location="Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing.Controls._children">
          <Button
            Id="Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing.CheckLinkedPageItemsButton"
            Alt="Check Linked Page Assets"
            Sequence="40"
            Command="CheckLinkedPageItems"
            Image32by32="/_layouts/images/ita/CheckLinked32.png"
            Image16by16="/_layouts/images/ita/CheckLinked16.png"
            LabelText="Check Assets"
            TemplateAlias="o1"
            ToolTipTitle="Check Linked Page Assets"
            ToolTipDescription="Checks each image, document and page linked to from this page and verified if the asset is both working (not a broken link) and published. You may also use that page to publish all unpublished assets at once."
            />
        </CommandUIDefinition>
      </CommandUIDefinitions>
      <CommandUIHandlers>
        <CommandUIHandler Command="CheckLinkedPageItems" CommandAction="javascript:alert('button clicked!);" />
      </CommandUIHandlers>
    </CommandUIExtension>
  </CustomAction>
</Elements>

I've tried several different combinations of RegistrationId and RegistrationType with no avail.

So far I've tried:

List / 101
List / 850 (id for Pages Library)
FileType / aspx
ContentType / 0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E219954237AF39 (ContentTypeId for 'page' content type)

Has anyone actually gotten this to work? Thanks!

Well, it looks like all the examples out there are wrong, at least in this particular case. The TemplateAlias attribute needs to be c1, not o1.

Hope this helps someone.

I haven't tried with the RegistrationId but take a look at my blog post for putting it on the edit page
