Copying a search profile
If you need to create a search profile with settings similar to an existing profile, you can copy that profile. Copying a search profile lets you create a new profile that replicates some of the settings and information associated with the existing profile. Copying a profile replicates most basic profile settings, as well as other elements found in the profile:
- language configuration
- custom page elements
- search result displays
- facet configuration
- selected search targets
- search box configuration
- enabled search limits
- enabled pickup libraries
- My Account configuration
- field boosts
- Advanced Search configuration
- room taxonomy, including room visibility and room availability
- Home Room content and layout
- room content
- room layout
Copying a profile does not copy the Code, Profile URL, or assigned IP address ranges. You must provide a unique Code and Profile URL when you copy a profile, and you can set up specific IP address ranges that you want to direct to the copied search profile before you save the search profile.

When you copy an existing profile, you must modify some values before you can save the copied profile. These fields must be unique to each profile and are highlighted for easier reference. Once you change the values for these unique fields, you can save the copied profile. |
