Came across this error recently while creating a sub site using a custom template. "This web template requires that certain features be installed, activated, and licensed. The following problems are blocking application of the template: Feature Description Feature Scope Feature ID Problem ViewFormPagesLockDown Feature Site collection 7******3-0**4-4**d-9**a-7c175******4 Not activated" Solution: ViewFormPagesLockdown is referring to the Limited Access User Permissions Lockdown mode feature. Please try to navigate to the site collection where you want to use the template to create a sub-site, then go to Site Settings>Site Collection Administration>Site Collection features to activate the Limited Access User Permissions Lockdown mode feature to see the result.
