## Set configuration

The shell module needs to be configured in order for user interface options to become visible. When you have [created an index](🔗), you get an email with an **episerver.find** section that you add to the site's _web.config_. The Optimizely shell module registration and configuration are done automatically when you install using NuGet packages.

Below are the changes made in configuration when installing the packages.

**Registering Search & Navigation module**

**Adding handler for embedded resources**

## Access rights

Access to views in the shell module is restricted to users in one of three groups:

• WebAdmins

• Administrators

• SearchAdmins (Search & Navigation-specific)

📘

Note

The first two groups have Admin view access in Optimizely Content Management System (CMS), and access to shell module views by default. To grant users without administrator access, create the **SearchAdmins **group for the membership and role provider you are using, and add those users to it.

## Supported browsers

The shell module relies heavily on CSS 3, so only modern browsers are supported. See the [system requirements for Optimizely](🔗).

## Added views

When properly configured, the shell module adds the views and subviews described below to the editing interface.

### Manage

#### Statistics

• This view shows [Search statistics](🔗) for the top most frequent searches, searches without hits, and searches without relevant hits. Statistics can be displayed for last 24 hours, last week, last month or last year.

#### Optimization

• [Best Bets](🔗) – Can be site and language-specific or site and language-independent, depending on choices made in the site and language drop-downs (near the top of the view).

  📘

  Note

  To apply Best bets to search results, you must apply an `ApplyBestBets` extension method.

• [Related queries](🔗) – Can be either site and language-specific or site and language independent.

  📘

  Note

  To use related queries, you must apply a `DidYouMean` method.

• [Synonyms](🔗) – Can be language-specific or apply to any language, but cannot be site specific.

  📘

  Note

  To use synonyms, you must apply a `UsingSynonyms` extension method.

### Configure

• [Connectors](🔗) – Provides a view for creating and listing connectors.

### Overview and explore views

The **Overview** and **Explore** views let you browse indexed content, displaying information about indexed documents count grouped by type. Filtering by type and arbitrary search query is supported.
