Finder is an advanced Joomla! search engine (a replacement for the built in Joomla! Search system). It is capable of indexing and searching a variety of content including Joomla! core articles and contacts as well as Magazine articles, authors, issues, publications, and more. It utilizes a pluggable adapter system which allows an administrator to easily install new search adapters to provide support for virtually any type of document from the standard Joomla! content to PDF documents to whatever you desire. Finder features: * Full content indexing for faster and more accurate searching; * Alternative search phrase suggestions when no results are found (did you mean 'joomla' when searching for 'jomla'?); * Selectively hide content items from search results; * Respectful of content publish and access control states; * Intuitive and easy to use search phrase modifiers; Scalable design that easily handles thousands of content items. Version 1.0.1 Stable was released on 30 May 2008 with many improvements including: * Execute multiple search adapters at the same time. * Multiple search adapters can now index simultaneously. * Added a message to the start of the indexing process to show that it has actually started. * Improved error message visibility. * Improved the dashboard interface. * A fix for searching and indexing Chinese content (experimental).

All the required extensions are contained in one package - no need to worry about installing each extension individually. To upgrade just install the new package again - it's that simple - no need to uninstall or wrestle with messy patch files.
