I have searched around a bit, and there isn't any obvious option to enable indexing of a feed in the Admin UI, so that means there must be another way to do it...

Either do a little coding, or use the Feeds module. For more info see this Drupal Stackexchange answer: http://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/1858/how-to-index-content-from...

@smag the link really only says:

The core aggregator module doesn't implement hook_update_index(), so your options here are to either do a bit of coding in a custom module to expose the contents of the aggregated feeds to the search module, or, to use the Feeds module.

I have also looked for an answer on how to do this without luck. Unfortunately, I do not have the experience to write a module for this. I guess looking for other modules that implement hook_update_index() might be a start.
