DNN 5.6.2   Have exported and imported portals many times...

Exported portal0 to a template.  No errors. On import it gave me a "Not valid Template" error.

Long story short; changed line 6 of the template file from:
'
<userregistration>-1</userregistration>

to:

<userregistration>2</userregistration>

Did this because that seemed to be the only difference with templates that worked.  It then worked flawlessy...

Why did the -1 get saved when 2 is needed.  What is this value for??

No urgency; I'm fixed but know not why...

Thanks Sebastian; as always you are most helpful.   It certainly does result in an error, but on import...

Peculiar, but it appears that when I export a portal template while logged in as host [obviously], it depends on from where I logged in as host.  If I log in thru a portal other than 0 (i.e. a child in this case) the exported portal has the -1 instead of 2 in the <userregistration>

I don't have time to experiment fully right now but  just did an export that imported perfectly and that was all that differed...

What a wonderful feature the portal export/import is, particularly w/content...  Wish ALL modules (eg, third party) were compliant...

Again...  5.6.2 CE is where I'm at.

Robert, please make sure that the error get logged in the issue tracker at support.dotnetnuke.com, this is the only chance to get it fixed in a future version.
