So, the advise here https://toolset.com/forums/topic/filtering-out-free-products-from-site-wide-search-results-issue/

Worked successfully, but I noticed the hidden link

page still returns, how can I stop this from happening? I can't seem to add a category to the page to tag it with free, and therefore not show.

Thanks

Hello,

Please elaborate the question with more details:
page still returns, how can I stop this from happening? I can't seem to add a category to the page to tag it with free, and therefore not show.

Which page should not be returned in the result?
Are you going to add a term "free" to the post?

You can also provide your website credentials in below "private detail box", also point out the problem post/page URL, I can login your website and check the problem in a live website, thanks

Thanks for the details, I assume we are talking about this search result page:
hidden link

What is condition that you are going to exclude those specific posts?

1) If you are going to exclude a specific page "free-resources"(ID 305) from the search result, you can edit the view "Generic: Search":
hidden link

In section "Query Filter", add a post ID filter:

Exclude posts with the following IDs: 305

2) If you are going to exclude all posts assigned to term "Free-Plan" of taxonomy "Access permissions", you can add a taxonomy filter:

Access permissions in no one of these: Free-Plan
