Enabling publishing infrastructure feature by default in sharepoint 2010?

Question

I saw this question posted on a site and I would like to know if there is an answer as I have the same issue.

I know how to in the settings activate publishing feature on a site but is it possible to have this by default when a new site is created from the UI?

I have some customized stylesheets and when a new team site is created it doesn't load these but instead looks like a sharepoint site out of the box. When I go to settings and activate publishing features the page reloads with the custom stylesheets. I wish to not have to do this every time a new site is created. Is there a solution to this?

I would like to know if there is an OOTB or designer solution Thanks

Answer 1

At the bottom of the page here you have "Web Site Creation or Deletion Events"

You will notice the way to do this is with feature association.
