Hi, see links below to create custom actions. I think you need to set Location and Group ID:

Custom actions: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-en/library/ms460194.aspx

Locations and Groups ID:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb802730.aspx

Answer 3

What is the scope of feature you set? If it is web scope, have you activate it at sub site?

Answer 4

do your subsite libraries use the content type as well? it looks like you have attached this command to a content type.
