Create the new Search Center Tab


New tabs for Search Center involve several different parts. First, you must create a
search page. Then you must create a search results page. Finally, you must
associate the scope with the new pages and create tabs to display them. Follow
these steps to get it all working:

1. From the Search Center page, select Site Actions>>Create Page

2. On the Create Page

- Enter HR Documents Search in the Title field
- SharePoint should automatically generate a valid page name
- Select "Search Page" from the list of available Page Layouts
- Click the Create button

3. A new page should now be visible with a Search Box web part

- Select Modify Shared Web Part from the web part's edit menu
- Expand the Miscellaneous section
- Enter HRDocumentsResults.aspx in the Target Search Results Page URL field
(you will create this page next)
- Uncheck the box labeled "Display Advanced Search Link"
- Click the OK button
- Click the Publish button at the top of the page

4. From the new page, select Site Actions>>Create Page

5. On the Create Page

10. On the New Item page
