Hi Everyone, Very quick question but confusing, I need to apply site templates design from Site A into Site B, without losing its data, how can I do this ? Site A: http://i53.tinypic.com/2virsls.jpg Site B: http://i53.tinypic.com/11s1ll1.jpg what to backup first in case something goes wrong ? Thanks. /* Infrastructure Support Engineer */

I don't know your exact situation, but I would not try to apply the site template to the existing site. I would, instead, create new sites based on the site template, then migrate whatever content is needed from the old site to the new site. No need to back up anything as your not overwriting, and you're only copying data from old to new.Steve Clark, MCTS | Twin-Soft.com

I'm about to do SharePoint template export from site collection A into site collection B, since the site collection A is currently what we want to standardize the look and feel along with its components (lists, view) I wonder if there is easier and safe way to apply the look and feel along with its list view to the existing site collection B ? Thanks for your reply./* Infrastructure Support Engineer */
