The control is not available because you do not have the correct permissions

If you see the above message on your infopath web based form, it means you extract information from a sharepoint security group, whose 'Group Settings' for 'Who can view the membership of the group?' is set to Group Members only.

Change it to 'Everyone'.

Teamsite redirecting to _layouts/15/start.aspx

To remove the automatic redirect of pages to _layouts/15/start.aspx

Site Settings >> Site Actions >> Manage Site Features >> Deactivate Minimal Download Strategy Feature

SP 2013 Save as site template page missing

Eventhough I go directly to the save as site template page which is /_layouts/savetmpl.aspx I get an error "The "Save site as template" action is not supported on this site."

As a workaround:

1. Open your site in SP Designer
2. Click Site Options
3. On Parameters tab, change to "true" for SaveSiteAsTemplateEnabled
