Favorite searches consist of:
● My Searches: Searches you create for private or public use.
● Shared Searches: Searches other Portal users have made public.
After completing and running an advanced search, you can name and save the search for later use. You can either keep it private or share it with others when you name it. If you save a search, it appears in the Favorite Searches area of the Home page. From the Home page you can share and restrict a search. You can also choose to delete the search or email the search results.
● To create a favorite search, click Perform an Advanced Search, enter the search criteria, and then run the search. Once the search results appear, you can click the star icon to add the search to the list of searches displayed on the Home page in the Favorite Searches area.
● To share/restrict a favorite search, click the lock icon next to the name of the search in the My Searches area. The shared search appears with an open lock icon next to its name. Clicking the open lock will make the search private. Shared searches appear in My Searches for the creator and in Shared Searches for all other users.
