 +
 +By default, VuFind®'s search box template defaults to Solr search options when accessed from "generic" pages such as user account pages or the search history screen. Starting with VuFind® 6.1, the defaultSearchBackend setting in the [Site] section of [[configuration:files:config.ini]] can be used to control the default search box behavior. Set it to the name of the search backend you wish to use by default (e.g. EDS, Summon, etc.).
