# Configuring the Attribute list

The Attribute list defines the attributes that are displayed to the end user in the Guided Navigation component.

The Attribute list dialog is where you configure the attributes and attribute sets shown in the Guided Navigation component:

To configure the attributes shown in the Guided Navigation component:

1. Access the Guided Navigation edit view. The Attribute list dialog is one of the displayed dialogs.
2. If you need to find a specific attribute, use the Filter Attributes search box to search for an attribute by name (with type-ahead).
3. In the Attribute list, check the attributes and attribute sets that you want displayed in the Guided Navigation display. Unchecked attributes or attribute sets are hidden from the end user's view.
4. Use the Expanded check boxes to select attributes that will appear expanded in the end user's view. Note that the end user may choose to collapse expanded attributes.
5. Use the Allow Negative check boxes to select attributes that can be negative as well as positive refinements. A negative refinement, when selected, is excluded from results.
6. Click Save Preferences to save your changes.
