 * i have installed the plugin (search everything). is there a form i need to fill
   out saying what and where i want it to search? i am worried because when i search
   for los angeles which is in my profile page it doesn’t find it. Does it take 
   time for the search to build (work) as i only have two people on my blog which
   is maybe why it doesnt work yet. do i need more of a body of people before search
   starts. Its says the plugin is activated but how do i know?
 * thanks

 * The documentation doesn’t say anything about searching profiles. I think all 
   of the searching is done in items with displayable content – pages, posts, comments,
   excerpts, drafts, etc.
 * Note that you need to configure the items to search in Settings->Search Everything.

 * Go to the Admin panel (aka Dashboard). There should be a ‘Settings’ menu item
   in the left sidebar. Open that menu item. There should be a ‘Search Everything’
   choice in that menu – click it to open the configuration panel.
 * In the configuration panel, set the items you want to search to ‘Yes’ and save
   the options.
