To
change a site’s settings, access the Site Settings page by opening the
Site Actions menu and choosing Site Settings, as shown in Figure 1.
Different types of sites have more settings than others (see Figures 2 and 3).
A root-level site has more settings than a subsite, and publishing
sites have additional settings. The settings available on a page vary
based on the permissions you have on the site. For example, in a
root-level site, the link to the settings for the site collection (see Figure 3) is displayed only if you have site collection administrator privileges.
