This plugin is an absolute gem for managing search results on my WordPress site! I was struggling with unwanted pages showing up in my site’s search results, and this plugin solved the problem elegantly. The interface is straightforward – just tick the boxes for posts or pages you want to exclude, and you’re done. It’s lightweight, doesn’t slow down my site, and works exactly as advertised.
