Hide a form page from on-site search and search engines to keep it accessible only via post-purchase emails.
Recommended approach: Use Shopify-provided metafields (custom metadata fields) to exclude the page from site search and to prevent robots (search engine crawlers) from crawling/indexing it. Configure these settings via the Custom Data section in the Shopify admin.
Implementation resource: A YouTube tutorial link was shared with step-by-step instructions; the video is central to understanding the setup.
Outcome: The requester learned about the Custom Data section, appreciated the guidance, and indicated they will proceed with this method.
Status: Resolved; no disagreements or open questions noted.

We are planning a post-purchase email campaign directing customers to a form page to send us video reviews. I do not want this page to be stumbled upon so I was wondering how I can hide it from site searches and from search engines indexing it.
Thank you for your thorough video. I didn’t even know about the Custom Data section or how it works, but this opens a whole new world of options so I thank you and appreciate your help!
