SharePoint:Adding template to the subsites

Issue:

Some days back i have not seen the Publising site template in the Template selection in the subsite

Resolution:

If you want to see the templates that are available in sitecollection in the subsites you nee to do this:

Check your WEBTEMP.XML file under \12\TEMPLATE\1033\XML folder.
Most probably templates you'd like to see are set to Hidden="TRUE". Make them false.

or

If your site is a publishing site, go to Page Layout and Site Templates Settings and add the templates that you want your subsites to use.
(Site Actions > Site Settings > Modify All Site Settings > Look and Feel > Page layouts and site templates)

SharePoint:Site Features in SharePoint Site

If you want to see site features in SharePoint Site and in Web

_layouts/managefeatures.aspx?scope=Web for Web

SharePoint:The site is not valid. The 'Pages' document library is missing

Issue:

When i tried to create a page using Site actions in the site i get the following error
The site is not valid. The 'Pages' document library is missing

Resolution:

It was given that go to site features and activate "Office SharePoint Server Publishing Feature"
but it was already in actived!!!! so what to do now

I have managed to fix this. When you upgrade, the root site needs the site publishing feature deacitvating and reactivating.
Try running this:
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -name PublishingWeb -url https://UrlOfPublishingSite -force
iisreset
stsadm -o activatefeature -name PublishingWeb -url https://UrlOfPublishingSiteiisreset

Thats it!!!!!!!!!!
