SiteSearch will automatically index the WebFiles collection within Sitellite, and make it available for searching. Only files marked with an access level of public will appear on the public web site however (or member for member-level users, etc.).

To search files more effectively, SiteSearch will index the contents of known file types in addition to their descriptions and keywords. The known file types that come with SiteSearch are as follows (including their typical file extensions and mime types):

• Text files (.txt, text/plain)
• HTML files (.html, text/html)
• XML files (.xml, text/xml)
• Microsoft Word (.doc, application/ms-word)
• Microsoft Excel (.xls, application/vnd.ms-excel)
• Microsoft Powerpoint (.ppt, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint)
• vCard files (.vcf, text/x-vcard)
• iCal files (.ical, text/calendar)
• RTF files (.rtf, text/rtf)
• PDF files (.pdf, application/pdf)
• MP3 files (.mp3, audio/mpeg)
• Photoshop files (.psd, image/x-photoshop)

Additional file types can be added to the file inc/app/sitesearch/lib/Extractor.php -- and of course, we welcome new file type contributions!
