# How to change default view in exported web archive

In order to change the default view in exported web archive, first thing you need to do is to find the *views-list.js* file which is located inside of db folder: *DESTINATION\_FOLDER\YOUR\_DATABASE\_ID\db*. You can open it any text editor, it should look like this:

In this web archive the default view is "*NFL\\\Conferences*". We can see that because the value of "*is\_default"* is set to *true.* Let's say we want the view *"NFL\\\Superbowl stats"* to be default. We need to change the value of *"is\_default"* in the view "*NFL\\\Conferences"* to *false* and set the value of *"is\_default"* in the view "*NFL\\\Superbowl stats"* to *true*. File *views-list.js* should now look like this:

Save the file, reopen your web archive in the browser and now when you open the database the default view will be "*NFL\\\Superbowl stats*".
