By default, the search results table shows only one row of fields for each record:

This can be changed to include additional field(s) displayed underneath the first row, making each Record Display a two-line display:

This is defined by Record Type, not by Content Type which  is normally how the [search results table](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3278549) is controlled.

There are three steps to implementing the additional row:

- enable the two-line display in [OPAC Maintenance](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3279383)
- [define the template](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3278051)
- assign the template to the Record Type

# Defining the template

**To create a search screen template, select** <span style="color: #ff0000">**System Management**</span>** **<span style="color: #ff0000">**> Task Centre > Template Maintenance**</span>.

The following screen is displayed:

This displays any templates already defined: you can limit the display to a particular office by selecting it from the drop-down list in the Templates Filter.

From here you can:

- [define a new search screen template](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3277999)
- [edit an existing search screen template](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3278249)
- [delete a search screen template](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3277867)


Once the templates have been defined, assign them to the relevant Record Type in [OPAC Maintenance](https://soutron.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/3279093).
