ES 2.2 Exclude a forum from Similar Search

[twollert]

Is it possible to exclude a specific forum from Similar Search? And if so, how can I do that?

ACP > Setup > Enhanced Search

/admin.php?enhanced-search/

Up the count in

Similar thread search options: Same forum boost amount

to a high number (I think)

The above will only work assuming that the forum contains sufficient content that meets the search criteria.


I do know that @AndyB had a 'Similar threads' add-on that allowed for only content from the thread to show, whether or not he could create a similar add-on to compliment the built in XF Similar Search I don't know, worth asking though

Good workaround, thanks!

I'm also keen to exclude certain threads from certain forums appearing in similar threads. The forum boost above is one way, but I don't want all similar threads to appear from the same forum. Anyone figured out another way?
