Hi,

I can't comment on this thread (https://forums.iis.net/post/2126963.aspx) as it's already closed but I wanted to add that you *can* in fact set your own custom site ID in IIS using the following :
```
$SiteName = "SITENAME"
$iisSite = "IIS:\Sites\" + $SiteName
$website = get-item $iisSite
Stop-WebSite -Name $SiteName
$website.id = 54321
$website | set-item
Start-WebSite -Name $SiteName
```

Hi Paul,

Of course, we could set the custom site ID. In fact, the command could be more simple:
```
Set-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST'  -filter "system.applicationHost/sites/site[@name='TestSite5']" -name "id" -value 8
```
Best Regards,
