Is there a way to flag certain folders to NOT be searched when someone uses the standard FP Search
form? I don't want people finding items in my store folder if they are just searching on the
website information.
 
Yes. You have to rename the directory to include an underscore as the first
character (such as _filesnottosearch). This directory will also be hidden
from FP unless you change the FP Options (Options | Advanced tab I believe)
to show hidden folders.

Hope this helps,
