I have seen some custom made gadget for the dashboard and a plugin in admin-mode in EPiServer 6 R2 that will let you rebuild the search index.

What options are there in EPiServer 7?

Are there any official plugin-in/gadgets or some other built-in feature that I have yet to discover?

Is it possible to manually rebuild the entire index without any gadgets/plugins? how?

What is the most common method?

If you're using the built in indexer you should be able to go to http:///EPISERVERUI/cms/admin/indexcontent.aspx (replace EPISERVER-UI with your path) and trigger a reindex.

I'm not that familiar with using the built in indexer, but I think it's using the EPiServer Indexing Service, so make sure that is installed (you can do it using the EPiServer Deployment Center)

Well you can always remove the old index files and restart your iis-service

To reindex by code do this

var reIndex = new EPiServer.Search.ReIndexManager();
reIndex.ReIndex();
