## Сүрөттөө

The **Hide from Search** plugin allows you to hide individual WordPress pages from
search engines and/or WordPress search results.

#### Why?

It isn’t uncommon to have pages on your site that are public, but not intended to
be found. Take, for example, a download page where people who have signed up for
your email newsletter can download your amazing white paper. You don’t want just
anyone to be able to download your white paper, but the page has to be public because
people who sign up for your newsletter aren’t going to be logged into your site.
You can’t have people who perform a search for the title of your whitepaper finding
it in search. The solution? Download this plugin and hide your download page from
WordPress search as well as search engines!

#### How?

Using this plugin is simple:

 1. Install the plugin
 2. Activate the plugin
 3. Go to a post you want to hide and check the ‘Hide from search’ checkbox on the 
    bottom right of the screen.
 4. Save your changes

#### Функциялар

 * Works with custom post types
 * No settings page, just a simple, easy-to-use checkbox
 * Clean, well written code that won’t bog down your site

Using the plugin is simple, just check the box to hide a page or post.

#### Prerequisites

If you don’t meet the below requirements, I highly recommend you upgrade your WordPress
install or move to a web host that supports a more recent version of PHP.

 * Requires WordPress version 4.7 or greater
 * Requires PHP version 5.6 or greater

#### The Easy Way

 1. In your WordPress admin, go to ‘Plugins’ and then click on ‘Add New’.
 2. In the search box, type in ‘Hide from Search’ and hit enter. This plugin should
    be the first and likely the only result.
 3. Click on the ‘Install’ link.
 4. Once installed, click the ‘Activate this plugin’ link.

#### The Hard Way

 1. Download the .zip file containing the plugin.
 2. Upload the file into your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory and unzip
 3. Find the plugin in the WordPress admin on the ‘Plugins’ page and click ‘Activate’

#### Usage Instructions

Once the plugin is installed and activated, go to a post you want to hide and check
the ‘Hide from search’ checkbox on the bottom right of the screen and save your 
changes. Viola! The post has been hidden!

I 100% agree with the previous reviewer below. 3 stars for a potentially great plugin.
For 5 stars please add: Options to be selected in Quick Edit mode and also add a
section under Settings where it is possible to exclude multiple pages, posts or 
whatever from google or WP searches. Previous review:Happy to adjust my rating if
I’m wrong but currently it appears you need to enter Edit to apply any changes. 
I have the need to hide hundreds of pages in a very large website and it would be
so handy if the options were placed inside the Quick Edit. Furthermore, it would
be even more handy if you could then select multiple pages and edit them together.

This plugin definitely works, but I find that it's hit or miss. Using it with WordPress
products, some products still show in search results even with the boxes ticked 
while others don't. Not sure why the inconsistency is there.

This plugin is well coded and maintained. It's FREE FROM: bloat, clutter, nagging
messages, spam advertising (as some other plugins in this category are not.) We've
tested Hide from Search and it indeed does hide whichever you want: search engines
and/or WordPress search results for any Posts/ Pages/ WooCommerce Products/ LearnDash
Courses and all other Custom Post Types that we've seen (that are coded to the WordPress
standards of posts/pages). Our heartfelt thanks to, Micah Wood, the plugin author
for being generous and continuing to make WordPress.org the wonderful open sourced
enabler that allows individuals, businesses, organizations and educators all around
the world to be able to build anything they want on the web, as well as or better
than any other content management system! Note: We have indeed tested all of the
other plugins in this category listed on WordPress.org, prior to migrating 853 client
sites (migration still in progress) from one of the other plugins that recently 
ruined a plugin they either purchased or took over by littering the WordPress Dashboard
with spam advertisements and making the plugin unnecessarily bloated.

Hide From Search is super easy to use…and it works. Specifically, it helps you take
any post or page and easily ensure public users don't find it in search. Use case:
hide thank you pages and confirmation pages. As far as customer support goes, I 
emailed Micah about an issue and he released a fix the same day. Highly recommended!
