Searching

Hi All

I have just been looking through the documentation for Searching and Indexing as I wanted to add the Search function to my dev site.
I just wanted to ask if I had a custom theme installed but I had my content areas called 'Main Content or Main' would I need to still need to copy /concrete/jobs/index_search.php over to /jobs/index_search.php and amend the file or would c5 still index as I used the same names?
Also how long should the reindexing process take in the maintenance section? I tried it on a custom template and it just seemed to run for hours and in the end I gave up and did a reinstall, not sure if I was being super impatient or if that just means I did something wrong.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

According to my search on this forum, we do not need to override the indexing job if we just use the 'Main Content' or 'Main' area.
Just go to dashboard->sitemap->page search. There's should be a link named "setup index" on the search form. Go there.
This is by default is a whitelist. Only selected area are Indexed and by default is none. Just mark your desired area to index, and save.
try re-index your site. this should solve the indexing problem.
btw, I'm using version 5.4.0.5.

you are correct :)

you should always have an area named Main on your page though,
