I'm a site owner for my company and am new to SharePoint in general. I'm trying to save a site as a template to be used for future sites. When I "Save site as template" from the Site Settings options, I get the following:

Error
An unexpected error has occured. Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Correlation ID: Lists a long alpha-numeric code here Date and Time:

We have done and checked everything I know to do. Our site is SharePoint Designer enabled, I have full access (That I know of). This just isn't working. Are there any known issues? Something I might try?

If this is a publishing site, it is not fully supported to save it as a template. Check if the publishing feature is enabled on Site collection or Site level:

Site settings --> Manage Site collection features

and

Site settings --> Manage Site features
