General tab

On this tab, you can modify the general properties of the currently edited search index. It is the same properties that you define when creating a new search index:

•	Display name: name of the index displayed in the administration interface

•	Code name: name of the index used in web site code

•	Analyzer type: type of analyzer that will be used when indexing the content of your site, the following types are available:

•	Standard - grammar-based analyzer (stop-words, shortcuts, ...), very efficient for English, but need not produce satisfactory results with other languages

•	Simple - divides text at non-letter characters

•	Stop - contains a collection of stop-words at which it divides the text

•	White space - divides text at whitespaces

•	Index type: type of content to be indexed

•	Documents - indexes content of documents in the content tree

•	Forums - indexes content of discussion forums

Besides modifying these properties, you can also Rebuild () the index, which deletes the original one and the specified content gets indexed again. Index is automatically optimized after successful rebuild.

You can also Optimize () the index, which results in better search performance, particularly in case of large indexes.

In the Index info box, you can find some self-explaining information about the index.
