My team and I are trying to figure out how to identify a site templatewell after it has been created. Is there a way to identify whichtemplate was used? How does this work?
I know of no method for doing this. The original template is just a startingpoint for the creation of a Site. Once created any number of Lists,Libraries, features and additional sites could be added to it. You couldstart with a blank site template and by the time you are done, have a sitethat looked as if you created it with the Collaboration template.
Actually, you could 'save site as template', open the .stp file withwinzip, and look in the xml file. It will list the originating sitedefinition. There was a thread on this a while back, but I only haveemail at the moment.
