Answer:

First develop a SharePoint Feature by either copying an existing Feature and do modification on top of it as per the requirements, or you can also create a Feature using SharePoint Feature project template in the Visual Studio .Net (you need to install SharePoint project extensions for Visual Studio).

Once Feature has been developed, create a folder within the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES" directory. Keep the name of this folder same as your Feature's name. Place all the Feature files within this folder.

Now run the following STSADM command to install the Feature into the SharePoint server farm:

stsadm -o installfeature -name FeatureFolderName

Once feature is installed successfully, you can activate the feature depending on its scope (farm, web application, site collection, and web site). Feature can be activated by the SharePoint site front end, or by using the following STSADM command:

stsadm -o activatefeature -name FeatureFolderName –url http://servername/site/subsite
