I am adding a lot of text as part of an exhibit and I'd like to make each of these pages retrievable in a search. Right now it seems that the search function only reviews "items." Is it possible to also search "exhibits"?

This is an excellent question. Currently, Omeka does not search the exhibit text. We tried creating a LuceneSearch plugin, and it was able to search that data, but it used the Zend_Lucene_Search library, which was too slow and did not scale well with Omeka. We are hoping that a SolrSearch plugin in the future would be able to search exhibit metadata. If you want this feature for ExhibitBuilder, you should post a feature request to the Feature Requests forum.
