We are looking for the correct method to exclude specific pages and posts from search results. From my understanding, the Newspaper theme uses the default WordPress Search for displaying content on the site. I did find some replies in the Forum however most of the links are not working that your team shared.
Please provide the best method we should use for this theme? Code update or 3rd party plugin?
Hello,
You can exclude page/post types on the Live search element -> https://i.imgur.com/ZTwr5Rn.png
After edit the template search for posts loop you can set the post type -> https://i.imgur.com/LhbZ0Cr.png
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing the information. This process does not seem as intuitive as a plugin would be. Per the screenshots. I can exclude all pages or all posts, is there any way to exclude specific categories? For the loop element used in the cloud template, I am able to exclude posts ids. Again not very intuitive. Are there plugins that you have tested with your theme and can recommend similar to https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-exclude/.
Please let me know.
Hello,
This plugin is not tested, but you can use it.
Thank you!
Thank you. Do you know of any similar plugins that have been tested with your theme?
Hi,
Some users use this plugin, and this works pretty well with the theme based on users feedback.
Thank you!
