PHPRunner General questions

My previous jobs database was just a collection of web pages that required manual updates. PHPRunner has replaced this manual design with a fully automated jobs database. Excellent! However, one side benefit of the previous design was all the information was known by various search engines such as Google. Given that my database has a Guest login, will search engines be able to search all the information in the database?

Christopher,
use simple search and advanced search for this purpose. Check off all fields on these pages on the Chose fields tab and assign search permissions for guest account on the Security tab.

Thanks for responding. The search functions on my database work fine for guest login. I was asking a different question.
My question relates to spiders such as Google, Yahoo, and others. I want Google, etc, to index all the information in my database so web surfers can find my site. Will these search engine spiders be able to walk my database if I have a guest login?
Best,

Christopher
