I made 20 something posts with lists of links by town/city. The links would then go off to the various towns and city pages. For some reason when I searched for a town in search the new alphabetical posts would show but not keeping any width settings unlike the other post listings. It broke the look of the page and the dreaded horizontal scrollbar appeared with a long horizontal list of the link text. I tried to fix it but could not so thought maybe I could hide those posts from the search results and went looking. As you will all know looking for plug ins is not an exciting journey so I was not thrilled. However I was lucky enough to find this plug in first search and it works EXACTLY as it says it does, which IME is weird for a plug in! So after simply checking a box my problem is solved and all the annoying posts are hidden from search. There are a tonne of other free options for the plug in but this is all I needed…for now:) Well done developer, your plug in is making a difference and is very cool!

This plugin is great but can you add a feature that can enable us to unhide posts in bulk? instead of doing that one by one? Maybe from siteurl/wp-admin/edit.php Thanks.

This plugin helped us in a big possible way. Thanks to developer. We have one small request. Can you implement a feature Post unhiding after specific time or date. That would be grateful.

The plugin does exactly do what I was looking for the way I expected it to work without the need to configure anything. Thank you so much! If I wasn’t a software developer myself, I’d hire you! And I’d donate, but I couldn’t find any hint to the usual suspects …
