===============================================================
Grouping several indexing configurations in one search category
===============================================================

You might find that you want to group the results from multiple
indexing configurations in the same category. For instance, I have an
indexing configuration for "typo3.org" but I want
all search results to appear under the category "External URLs". This
can be done by creating a special type of indexing configuration which
only points to other indexing configurations:

..  figure:: ../../Images/GroupingConfigurations.png
    :alt: Grouping configurations

    Grouping several indexing configurations

This indexing configuration is not used during indexing but during
searching. So a reconfiguration of the TypoScript to use uid 9 instead
of 7,8 will yield this result:

..  figure:: ../../Images/ViewResultsGrouped.png
    :alt: Grouped search results

    Grouped search results

TypoScript:

..  code-block:: typoscript

    plugin.tx_indexedsearch.search.defaultFreeIndexUidList = 9,6,0
