As results are being served, you may find some results that you do not want to be
served to your end users. To prevent particular URLs from being served
in results, you can enter URLs or URL patterns on the Remove
URLs panel. Even though the URLs exist in the Test Center, they will
not be served.
You can add URL patterns to this panel at any time, and they will be
removed from the served results. You can also delete the URL patterns in
this window at any time to return those patterns to the served results.
To prevent crawling of pages that you add to the Remove URLs list,
you can add the same URLs to the Do Not
Crawl URLs with the Following Patterns in
the Crawl and Index > Crawl URLs page.
The URL patterns you provide must conform to the rules for valid URL patterns.
To enter a URL or URL pattern:
- Click Serving and then Front Ends.
- Click the Edit link next to the front end you want to edit.
- Click the Remove URLs tab.
- Type a valid URL pattern into the text box.
- Press the Enter key on your keyboard to add additional URLs or patterns.
Empty lines and comments starting with # are permitted.
- Click the Update List of Removed URLs button.
