Adding or editing a My List display

A My List display controls the way that a list of items in My Lists appears and behaves to patrons. You can customize Searching for your patrons by creating or editing the My List display associated with specific profiles. A My List display allows you to control the fields and enriched content that display with each item in the list. A My List display includes all targets included in a profile, excluding federated search targets (items from a federated search cannot be added to a list).

If you add or edit the settings for a display, you must refresh the Discovery search cache afterwards. Your changes are not reflected in Searching or the Admin console until you refresh the search cache. For more information about refreshing the Discovery search cache, see Refreshing the search cache.
