Problems with Excluding Pages

[ndcaldwell]

I’ve set up a test on my client’s site. The url and password have been input above. I’m attaching a screenshot of the applicable Exclude settings that have been entered into the Advanced area. I did also try just inputting the page id numbers but that gave me the same result.

I’m trying to exlude two pages from appearing. They are both forms that we do not want accessed from the search. However, they still show up in the search results. Search using the word Form and they will be #1 and #2 on the results page. (we aren’t using the dropdown portion of the search – instead we are just sending everyone to the results page).

This is a Multi-site with 2 blogs. WordPress and all plug-ins are up-to-date. The theme is Beautiful Pro, a child theme for Genesis.

What other settings do I need to do to get the exclusion to work? It’s very important that we block these two pages.

Thank you,
Nancy Caldwell

Hi!

It looks like you are using the non-ajax search feature only, but the search override is not activated – therefore the default search results are displayed.

On the General Options -> Behavior panel you can enable that. I suggest the following configuration: http://i.imgur.com/ZrY7vLv.png

That was it. Thank you so much!

You are very welcome!

If you don’t mind, I will close this topic and mark it as resolved for now, feel free to open another one if you have any other questions/issues.

If you like the plugin, feel free to rate it on your codecanyon downloads page, it’s greatly appreciated.
