Below is the search code. I'll admit that I don't have a total understanding of how the core search function works and what can and can't be added to it or changed.

oRepositoryBusinessController = New RepositoryBL
Dim SearchItemCollection As New SearchItemInfoCollection
Dim RepositoryObjects As ArrayList = GetRepositoryObjects(ModInfo.ModuleID, "", "Name", oRepositoryBusinessController.IS_APPROVED, -1, "", -1)
Dim SearchItem As SearchItemInfo
Dim UserId As Integer = Null.NullInteger
Dim objItem As RepositoryInfo
Dim strContent As String
Dim strDescription As String

For Each objItem In RepositoryObjects
   If IsNumeric(objItem.CreatedByUser) Then
      UserId = Integer.Parse(objItem.CreatedByUser)
   End If

   strContent = System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(objItem.Name & " " & objItem.Description)
   strDescription = HtmlUtils.Shorten(HtmlUtils.Clean(System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(objItem.Description), False), 100, "...")
   SearchItem = New SearchItemInfo(ModInfo.ModuleTitle & " - " & objItem.Name, strDescription, UserId, objItem.CreatedDate, ModInfo.ModuleID, objItem.ItemId.ToString, strContent, "grm2id=" & objItem.ItemId.ToString)
   SearchItemCollection.Add(SearchItem)
Next

Return SearchItemCollection

The following line determines what is included in the search (the name and description are there for now):

strContent = System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(objItem.Name & " " & objItem.Description)

This fantastic module can be improved by adding to the setting page the ability to select which items to be included in DNN search.  For example checkboxes to select Title, Description, Summary, Author, attribute values, etc.  Then modify the above line to contatenated all of the selected search parts.
