Search Preferences

Your WebCenter Portal application specialist makes tools and services available to portals. By default, all enabled services are searched. You can disable any service for which you do not want to see search results. For example, if you frequently search for a particular type of technology, including your personal contacts in the search is probably not useful.

Note:

Selecting the tools and services to search on the Preferences pages is supported only in non-faceted search task flows; hence, this setting will have no impact on your display results in faceted search task flows.

To specify which tools and services should be searched:

  1. On the Search page:
    • To add a tool or service to a search, select it in the Available Services list and click the Move selected items to list icon to move it to the Selected Services list.

    • To remove a tool or services from search, select it in the Selected Services list and click the Remove selected items from list icon to move it to the Available Services list.

  2. Click OK to exit Preferences, or click Apply to save your changes without exiting.

The selections you make in the Selected Services list are included in future searches. The services in the Available Services list are not searched.
