Reinherit map service from parent site

Is there a way to reinherit map services from a parent site, if you have previous deleted them from the child?  

 

I know that you can import map services from other sites, however this method appears not to establish a link between the map service and the one in your child site. Ideally, if I make a change in the parent, it will automatically do so in the child.  Is there a way to reestablish this connection again.

  Hello Lisa,

  Yes it is possible to reinherit. In the child, you will need to go to the Site Info page, and click Add Reference, then select your site. If a reference already exists to that site, you may need to remove it first, then add again.

   

  Thanks, 

   

  Stefan

  Ok.  I was hoping to avoid that because I do not want to drag out and drag in all the layers again. I just want to readd one layer. Is there any way within the configuration files or another method to do this?

  Unfortunately, there is no way to re-add these layers once removed from the child site.

  Actually, I've done this before by going into the Site.xml and deleting the line that removes the layers. Search your xml for MergeMode="Remove" , and delete the layers you want to re-add to your map.

   

          <Layers MergeMode="Remove">

   

            <Layer Name="Census2010_Tracts" NativeID="2" />

   

            <Layer Name="Census2010_BlockGroups" NativeID="3" />

   

            <Layer Name="CityNeighborhoods" NativeID="5" />

   

          </Layers>
