Meta Additional processors

Created on 2 February 2024, 11 months ago

Problem/Motivation

On larger projects using Search API you typically also use other modules handling the "indexibility" of entities, especially for search engines.
Such typical modules already handling indexibility are:

  • Metatag ("noindex")
  • Simple Sitemap (Do not index)
  • XML Sitemap (Do not index)

Authors typically don't want to set three values for the same thing. In many cases, an entity that should not be indexed (robots + sitemap) also shouldn't be found in search. Of course there are also different cases, where the separate selection is helpful.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

As editors typically need only one of the options listed above, it would be helpful, if the UI of this module could be hidden (for certain entity types) and instead the value from the modules could be used do determine the search API exclusion.

I believe this is a very common case and would be quite helpful.
