AEM Search exclude some properties

[adivj95]

Hi Community

We have user query builder search in our website , but when we search for name of author user it gives us result and we don't want that

Do we have some way we can exclude properties like jcr:lastModifiedBy cq:lastPublishedBy and similar properties from fulltext search 

Please suggest

Hello @adivj95 

we can exclude the properties from search by:

• nodeScopeIndex -> false (nodeScopeIndex set to true is responsible for a property being part of full text search)
• If we set "index -> false", then the respective property will not be part of property constraint query result either/not indexed at all.
• Also, property named analyzed -> false if the same is not to be part of contains query.

The details are available on this thread https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/excluding-properties-from-...
