Sites

site.templates

In 2.6.0 a feature was implemented to allow existing sites to serve as site templates. This was handled by adding the property site.templates and specifying a comma-delimited list of existing sites chosen to serve as templates. For 2.7.0 this property has been eliminated. Instead, the Sites tool must now be used to add the property template with a value equal to true for sites chosen to serve as site templates. Additionally, sites previously designated as site templates must be re-flagged using the Sites tool. In a future release there is a plan to add a checkbox indicating that a site is serving as a template.
