Make a page unsearchable

[Kelly]

Does anyone know how to make a page unsearchable from the
site search engine? I think I could set up some folder
to make it secure, but I'm not sure what that folder
would be named.

Any help would be apprectiated.

Thanks,

Kelly

If you are talking about the FP search component, then create a folder where the first character is
the underscore character and drag the page into it.

However if you have links to this page, then people will have access.

You can create a robots.txt file that goes in the root of your web. It
will tell robots and spiders what files they can reference, etc. Info
on creating a robots.txt file can be found at

Hope this helps,

Kelly,
Also add a meta tag to the files that you don't want indexed by
other search engines in the following way

<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW">

This tells search engines no to index the page, and not to follow
links from it for indexing.

Does the order of the meta tags matter?
