We have a number of Toolset relationships set up, and relationship posts are appearing in our search results.
For example, we have a relationship set up between 'Sponsor Roles' and 'Organisations'. When searching for 'ons' and not logged in, a post appears with the title 'Sponsor Roles - Organisation: 32714 - 34235', which I assume is the post created for the relationship which exists between organisation 32714 and Sponsor Role 34235.
How do I exclude these back-end posts from search results please?

Hi,

Welcome to Toolset support.

You can exclude them without any code:

- Go to Toolset → Post Types.
- Edit the intermediary post type used by the Sponsor Roles / Organisations relationship (its name will match the relationship, e.g. "Sponsor Roles Organisation").
- Expand the Options panel below the main settings.
- Tick exclude_from_search.
- Save the post type.

Thanks.
