include description and more details in search results

Is there an ability to include "description" and "more details" in search results? If so, do we need source code or can it be modified using conlib files?

I don't know what version of Gold you are using, but in R4 if you have Full Text Search turned on, those fields are included in the search. The Gold detailed feature list reads like those fields might be included if you use Lucene search also.

Yes these both fields are included in product search.

How do you turn on Full Text Search after the installation is done?
I looked at the store settings and couldn't find any references.
Thanks.

It depends on what build you are using. If it is available to you, it is in the store settings page.
