About

A module to exclude individual nodes from the search system. Nodes are excluded from the search results at search / query time, so excluded nodes are still indexed. This allows for instant inclusion / exclusion of the nodes from the search results.

Usage

Enabling this module will create a new fieldset on each node's form. The fieldset is titled "Search Exclude" and contains one checkbox. Checking this box and saving the node will cause the node to be excluded from the core search system. Unchecking and re-saving the node will cause the node to be included in the search results again.

Because this functionality happens at query time, its not a good fit if there are hundreds of nodes you want to exclude from your search results. You'll end up with slow searches. This module is a good fit for when you want all of your nodes in search except for a couple of dozen or so.
