The Link to Rule Set option lets you reuse an existing rule set that’s already defined for another category or folder.

Note: If a category or folder already has linked rules applied (indicated by an icon) you can link to new rules by Linking to a different rule set.
  1. Hover over a category/folder with no rules applied and click More then Manage Rules.
  2. Click Link to Rule Set.
  3. Find the category/folder you want to use. Select the site then select a folder. Check the rules listed to make sure you’re linking to the correct folder.
    Note: Locations that you don’t have permission to access are disabled.
  4. Click Link.
    Note: You can click View Rule Set to view the rule details, or Change to select a different rule to link to.
  5. Click Done.
