Jive Site Settings

To Specify a Default Jive Instance

1. Locate the Jive site settings section:
   • Site Actions menu > Site Settings > Jive.
     Note: You must have appropriate access on the site to be able to see or access the Site Actions menu.
2. Under Jive, click General Jive Settings.
3. Under Default Jive Instance, choose the desired Jive Instance (same as a Jive Installation). This Jive Installation will be used by the Jive Socialization Settings, the Jive User Popup, and the Copy to Jive drop down menu for SharePoint documents.
4. To have SharePoint subsites follow the same socialization configuration, select the Inherit settings from parent site check box. This specifies that the current SharePoint site "inherits" the Jive Installation details from its parent SharePoint site. If you select Inherit settings from parent site you can also select Allow parent socialized site to override settings. Having both checked is the default value. When you select Allow the parent socialized site to override the settings, the inheritance is dependent upon the selection in the Jive Socialization Settings page of the parent (ancestor) site.
   Note: If you access "General Jive Settings" for a SharePoint root-level site, the "Inherit settings from parent site" and "Allow parent socialized site to override settings" checkboxes are not shown.
5. Click OK.
