Hide specific pages (and collections?) from search - Refresh 8.0.0

[Kingstone]

I have had this code on my site before (and still have) to hide some pages from search: Solved: Re: How to remove specific pages from storefront search results - Shopify Community

But after I updated the theme last week to Refresh 8.0.0, it no longer works.

1. Do somebody know how can make my metafields to work again? Or some other easy way to hide pages?

{%- for item in search.results -%}
  {% assign lazy_load = false %}
  {%- if forloop.index > 2 -%}
   {%- assign lazy_load = true -%}
  {%- endif -%}

  {% unless item.metafields.custom.hide_from_storefront_search == 1 %}

  - {%- case item.object_type -%}
      {%- when 'product' -%}
       {%- capture product_settings -%}{%- if section.settings.product_show_vendor -%}vendor,{%- endif -%}title,price{%- endcapture -%}
       {% render 'card-product',
        card_product: item,
        media_aspect_ratio: section.settings.image_ratio,
        show_secondary_image: section.settings.show_secondary_image,
        show_vendor: section.settings.show_vendor,
        show_rating: section.settings.show_rating,
        lazy_load: lazy_load
       %}
      {%- when 'article' -%}
       {% render 'article-card',
        article: item,
        show_image: true,
        show_date: section.settings.article_show_date,
        show_author: section.settings.article_show_author,
        show_badge: true,
        media_aspect_ratio: 1,
        lazy_load: lazy_load
       %}
      {%- when 'page' -%}
     

      

       

        

           ### 
          
             {{ item.title | truncate: 50 | escape }}
          
         
        

        
           {{ 'templates.search.page' | t }}
        

       

      

     

      {%- endcase -%}
  

 {% endunless -%}

{%- endfor -%}

And is it also possible to hide some specific collections from search?

Hi @Kingstone

It seems that the code you provided is a search results template that checks whether a particular metafield named hide_from_storefront_search is set 1 for each search result item. If it is set to 1, the item is not displayed on the search results page. It is also possible to hide specific collections from search by creating a similar metafield for collections and updating the above code to check that metafield for each collection item. You can create a custom metafield for collections in the same way as you did for pages.

Here is the modified code that includes the check for the hide_from_storefront_search metafield for both pages and collections:

{%- for item in search.results -%}
  {% assign lazy_load = false %}
  {%- if forloop.index > 2 -%}
   {%- assign lazy_load = true -%}
  {%- endif -%}

  {% if item.object_type == 'page' %}
    {% unless item.metafields.seo.hide_from_storefront_search == 1 %}
      - ### 
                    {{ item.title | truncate: 50 | escape }}
                
              

              
                  {{ 'templates.search.page' | t }}
              

            

          

        

      

    {% endunless %}
  {% elsif item.object_type == 'collection' %}
    {% unless item.metafields.seo.hide_from_storefront_search == 1 %}
      - ### 
                    {{ item.title | truncate: 50 | escape }}
                
              

              
                  {{ 'templates.search.collection' | t }}
              

            

          

        

      

    {% endunless %}
  {% endif %}

{%- endfor -%}

Note that in the modified code, I am checking for the hide_from_storefront_search metafield with namespace seo for both pages and collections. If you have used a different namespace or key for your metafield, make sure to update the code accordingly.

We hope this can help you!
