I have one central model for which I return search results. However, I  
have a few fields in associated models that I would like to search as  
well. By adding methods to the central model, I can easily search for  
them with Acts as Ferret. However, these fields are not automatically  
indexed like the others. Does something need to be changed in the  
model?
