Thanks for the article Paul,
i'm fairly new to Share Point and was looking at ways to use stapling to set a local time zone property on the creation of sites. coming from australia we have a few hours difference so it would be nice to set the right time as a user creates a space. does this sound do-able using stapling?

TIA, John

I am unable to activate the feature automatically when a new team site is created. Where could be the wrong step that i have taken? why the feature is not stappled correctly?

Please help me. give me a idea what could be gone wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Vinay,

If the feature has been stapled correctly, it should activate when the site has been created and not require manual activation. It seems that something is not stapled correctly. What site template are you selecting when you are creating a new site?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,

This is Vinay. I have looked at the post and it was very useful for me.
But could you please tell me how is the feature being stapled getting activaed in the new site that is created.
I have followed the steps above but I could see the sites created only when the feature is activated manually in the new site created. Please advise
