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 search index displayed in the user interface |
| • | Code name - name of the search index used in web site code |
| • | Analyzer type - type of analyzer used for indexing, each type uses a different algorithm for parsing the text and is suitable for a different situation, 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 white spaces |
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.
