I have created a site using the out of the box community site template. This site functions correctly.
I have added some lists and libraries to this site and saved this new site as a template (e.g. My Community Site).
When I create a new site using this new template everything works correctly except for the "Management" view of the "Discussion list". I first noticed this problem when I clicked on the "Manage discussions" link in the"Community Tools" web part. When I click on this link the resulting page is essentially empty.
I have worked around this problem by deleting the "Management" view and subsequently creating a new "Management" view using the "Management" view template.
Is this perhaps a bug?
