Missing site templates when creating a publising (template) site in SP2010

Question

All I am having issues trying to add some of the additional site templates when a user selects New Site form the site settings menu. I have a publishing site template as recomended by Microsoft as a default Intranet site. How can I add some of the templates such as a team site, or something else?

Answer 1

I was using a publishing template from the start, so i rebuilt the server anyway, and created a blank site with activitating the publishing features.
