Hi, I'm not sure if I've done it correctly but I've done it!
This is what I've done. * I created a publishing portal. * Then I created a new page (Home.aspx) with a customised page layout (CustomPageLayout.aspx). These custom page layout has only the title and page content. * Change the default page to Home.aspx * Then save the site as template via .../_layouts/savetmpl.aspx as as "Save as Template" option is not existing in Site Settings. * Then I create a site using the site template above Your newly created site will have Home.aspx as the welcome page. If you want to have default.aspx as the welcome page, you have to create a new site definition. My 2 cents. Thanks.

Hi Guys I am trying to save Publishing Portal and Collaboration Portal sites as templates. When I create a new site using the new template, I am getting the following error: This page is not using a valid page layout. To correct the problem, edit page settings and select a valid page layout." A colleague mentioned there are problems with the publishing and collaboration portal sites. Just wondering if there is any solution for this problem. regards Anand Reddy (Web/DB Systems Administrator - DET) ********************************************************************** This message is intended for the addressee named and may contain privileged information or confidential information or both.
