    Hello,

    I’m trying to exclude the home page from my search results using &filter=`id,1,2`, however this seams to have no affect when placed in the search call or results page. Yes, I did clear the site cache.

    I’m using Evo RC1 and the provided version 1.8.3. Can anyone shed some light on why this might not be working?

    Thanks,
    AMDbuilder

      I don’t know if it’s the meta extra snippet I’m using or MODx - but when I un-mark checkbox for document to be searchable it excludes the doc
      in AjaxSearch and...

      The meta extra snippet also adds this for me:
       <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />
       <meta name="googlebot" content="noindex, nofollow, noarchive, nosnippet" />
      


      So I rather use the filter me too - http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?topic=36408.0
      But w/o using the snippet (mentioned above) this is how simple it should be.

        I could uncheck the setting, but I also use meta extra so it would add the don’t follow code to the home page... This would get me skinned alive by the site’s owner who wants everything out there for google we just don’t want the home page showing in the internal search results.

        Any suggestions on getting ajax search back inline or adding an &excludedocs=`` function?
