Hypothetically asking: If you didn't care about support, could you just use the old _layouts/savetmpl.aspx trick to create a template and then replace the default one in the Hive?

That is what I thought... Unfortunately if you have a complex template this could get quite complicated.

I am aware that I can make changes to the existing MySite template by using Feature Stapling, however, I just want to create a whole new template. Preferrably I would like to define the MySite Template through the browser (ie. add lists and webparts to the existing Template etc), copy the template and then have any new MySite that is created use the new template rather than the out-of-the-box one. Is this possible? Thanks heaps. ------------------------------------------------------------------- OzMOSS.com - to unsubscribe from this list, send a message back to the list with 'unsubscribe' as the subject.
