How to exclude a hidden field from the search action

[Jean]

Hi Steve and everyone,
I browsed the forum without finding an answer to this question. I don't want to have, in the result search list, a record whose matching string is in a hidden field.
I saw visibility:find = hidden in the forum as a proposition but it does not work. Do you have this kind of feature implemented ?
Regards
Jean

Well... do you know how to exclude the content of a field from the result list ?

Thank you
Jean

Currently this functionality isn't available, but I took the time this morning to add it in SVN. It will be included in the next release.

I have added the following fields.ini directives:

1. not_findable : Indicates that the field should not be used as part of a find (e.g. with the find form, or using URL conventions field=val)

2. not_searchable : Indicates that the field is not included for full-text searches (i.e. via the search box in the upper right).

I'll see about making a new release within the next week or so once all the current modifications are stabilized.

Hello Steve,
Do you have some news about this feature ?

It's in SVN still.. Haven't had a chance to do a release yet. Still fishing out some intermittent bugs in SVN.

Thank you Steve for your answer.
