Configure the Search and Browse portlet for local search service.

Set the CollectionLocation parameter of the Search and Browse portlet to the collection location of the search collection that you created. You can look up the collection location by performing the following steps:

1. Click Administration > Search Administration > Manage Search.

2. Click Search Collections.

3. From the Search Collections list, select the collection for which you want to configure the Search and Browse portlet.

For a list of the configuration parameter for the Search and Browse portlet refer to Configuration parameters for the Search and Browse portlet.

Each Search and Browse portlet can be configured to use one search index and to search one search collection only. If you have more than one search collection built and maintained, create a new copy of the Search and Browse portlet for each additional collection, and update its configuration parameters accordingly. To copy a portlet, use the Manage Portlets portlet on the Portlets page under Portal administration.
