How to Configure PRD 2.0 Settings

There are several settings available for PRD 2.0 that allow you to control the look and feel of how it appears on your website.

Current PRD 2.0 Settings
  1. Link for embedding the PRD: add this link to your public website to link to your PRD
  2. CSS Editor: customizes the look, feel, and style of your PRD
  3. Guided Search Manager: use this tool to build a graphical search to guide the public towards helpful searches
  4. Field Visibility: controls standard and custom field visibility to public users: read this help article to learn more about how to control these settings
  5. Keyword Search Settings: choose between ‘Find any of these words’ or ‘Find these exact words’ as the type of keyword search used by your help seekers; ‘Find these exact words’ is default as it works best
The following settings are shared between PRD 1.0 and PRD 2.0:
  1. Upload Logo: the image uploaded will appear on your PRD
  2. Page Title/Welcome Message/Manage Titles of Special Areas: these settings control the text that appears on different areas of your PRD
  3. Suggested Searches: this setting appears on the PRD 2.0 settings page, but it's not supported in PRD 2.0; the built in Guided Search Manager should be used instead           
  4. Highlight Resources: this setting allows you to highlight specific resources to appear on your PRD landing page; the setting is not yet supported in PRD 2.0
  5. Record Type Search: this setting controls which record types appear in your search results, choosing between ‘Agencies’, ‘Programs’, ‘Sites’, ‘ProgramsAtSites’
  6. Specify default map center and zoom: this setting allows you to specify the default map center and zoom ratio when no resources are returned in your search results; note, if resources are returned in your search results this setting becomes void
Notes about PRD 1.0 and PRD 2.0 Settings
  1. if you never used PRD 1.0, the shared settings can be treated the same as the settings that are unique to PRD 2.0. 
  2. If you previously subscribed to PRD 1.0, and are upgrading to PRD 2.0, it’s important to understand the settings above are shared between PRD 1.0 and PRD 2.0, meaning the setting changes will apply to both versions.
  3. If you only see a setting on the PRD 1.0 Settings page, and it doesn't appear on the PRD 2.0 Settings page, that means the setting isn't currently supported for PRD 2.0. More settings will be added as development continues, so check back soon!
