In the template gallery view for customer-provided site templates, templates associated with the type of site you’re on will show in the “Recommended” section. All other customer-provided site templates will show in the “More templates from your organization” section.
For example, if you are on a team site, site templates associated with a WebTemplate value of 64 will be displayed in the “Recommended” section.
