Hello folks,
I recently need to check which site type or site template has been used for my SharePoint Sub site. So for that I look into SharePoint Site Setting but was not able to find any such type of setting which indicate which type of site template I have used for my site.
So in this article I will show you how to know which site template you used for your sub site using the web browser and without doing any code. You can also use PowerShell or write some code but this is the simple and quick method to identify site template.
So for that simply browse any page of your SharePoint site, view the HTML source of browsed page and search for JavaScript variable “g_wsaSiteTemplateId”. The g_wsaSiteTemplateId variable is storing web template name with web template id.
Below screenshot show that I am using “BLOG” type site template for my SharePoint site.
Below table shows all the web templates name and with ID’s. Match web template name with your g_wsaSiteTemplateId value and identify you site type.
