    46 === If I rebuild a mine, all user profiles and their saved info (queries, lists, etc.) associated with that mine are deleted.  Is this the case?  If so, how can I save the profiles and their info and import them into the newly rebuilt mine? === #userprofile-porting 
     49=== Save user data and port over to a newly rebuilt mine? === #userprofile-porting 
    4750 
    4851No, all the data will be saved unless you do {{{ant build-db-userprofile}}} in the webapp directory.  However, saved lists work with internal ids which change when a new build of the mine is done.  To solve this you write the userprofile to XML first and re-import it. 
    5457I would check this works before you risk losing a userprofile database.  Of course, if you only have a couple of lists you can just re-import them from the webapp.

    62 === My quick search doesn't work.  What arguments does the quick search expect? === #quick-search-arguments 
     65=== Change how the quick search works? === #quick-search-arguments 
    6366 
    6467At the moment the quick search is configured to run a particular template query.  We use a query called {{{A_IdentifierSynonym_Object}}} this is configured in {{{webapp/resources/web.properties}}}. 
    6669All biological feature classes in the model have a collection of Synonyms objects to represent alternative identifiers.  We also create synonyms for each object identifier, e.g for a Gene with identifier 'eve' we also create a Synonym with value 'eve'.  This means we can just search through the synonym table to find any feature type.
