    Documentation says it will allow you to set it to search every page. There is no such setting on 6.6 and my site still only searches blog articles. I want users to be able to search non-blog pages too.

    I'm using 6.6 and I have the same problem. I can't see the page options.

    I can see both of them on the screenshot of the v6 :

    But these options are missing in my panel :
    - search every page
    - search approved page only

    Here's what I learned from the theme author:

    > It can be changed in: templates/template.search.php
    >
    > line: 18
    >
    > Change array('post', 'portfolio-item', 'slider-item', 'news-item') to
    > array('post', 'page', 'portfolio-item', 'slider-item', 'news-item')
    >
    Apparently it requires editerplus or some other software to modify the theme php. I am still working out how to do that, but may need to enlist the help of a more experienced web developer.

    Thank you very much, I found the solution thanks to these informations.

    You don't need a software, you can do these modifications in your dashboard (admin panel).

    The long explanation :
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_Files

    The short one :

    - access to your dashboard
    - "Access the Theme Editor from the Administration > Appearance > Editor menu."
    - select the theme you want to edit (by default, it's the current theme)
    - "click on the file [search.php] from the left-hand side list."
    - search for array('post', 'surely some other things')
    - replace with array('post', 'page', 'surely some other things')
    There should be two occurrences. Don't forget a parenthesis of a comma, there are important.
    - click on update file

    I'm using London Creative, it worked for me.
