Hi,

now that I have created a few download items, I notice that they show up in the search results or when you click on a tag. How do I prevent the items from showing up all over the place? I don’t want my website visitors to see these pages.

Thank you!!

OK, if you want to exclude download posts in the search result in your site, please put below code in your theme functions.php,

add_action( 'init', 'wpdm_custom_type', 99 );
function wpdm_custom_type() {
    global $wp_post_types;
    if ( post_type_exists( 'wpdmpro' ) ) {
        $wp_post_types['wpdmpro']->exclude_from_search = true;
    }
}

thanks
