If I am at the top level site in a collection and click on Reset To Site Definition under Site Actions > Look and Feel, does this affect any subsites in the collection?There are no mistakes; every result tells you something of value about what you're are trying to accomplish.

It will not affect subsites. You will have to manually reset each subsite or use stsadm to recursively reset each subsite to site definition. V

Hi, The sub sites in the site collection will not be affected by the action ‘Reset to site Definition ’you take at the top level site .As you can see in the ‘Reset to site definition’ page ,there are two choices you can choose from . 1. One is ‘Reset specific page to site definition version’ .Here if you type in a subsite URL ,it will alert that the file at the specific URL doesn’t exist in this site . 2. The second choice ‘Reset all pages ’will reset all the pages that exist in this site to site definition version ,such as the default.aspx ,All Item.aspx etc.. For more information about ‘reset to site definition’, please refer to this site: Reset a customized page to the site definition: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/reset-a-customized-page-to-the-site-definition-HA010174145.aspx Thanks,Ming
