Excluding library from Search - Matt84uk - 2025-03-10
I've got a number of libraries set up including one which has several thousand photos and videos from trips etc but they are poorly named and show up randomly in searches for TV / Film. The number of these then makes it hard to find what I actually want when searching.
It would take far too long to rename everything and wondered if it is possible to exclude selected libraries from being searched? I have had a look but can't see if this has been asked before (apologies if so).
Thanks
