Yeah, I know it is ancient code, hehe. However, when we tried upgrading to one of the newer versions a while back, we kept having server load spikes that would shut down our site. When we reviewed the logs it constantly showed that it was queries by the Unread Post mod that were causing the spikes. When we disabled the mod, the spikes stopped. When we re-enabled it, they started again. The old version was working fine so we just stayed with it. I have not tried the latest version though, which I may do since it appears you have released a new version or two since we last tried.

If you change the forum option "Index New Posts in Search Engine" to no, they will be excluded. Other than that it would require a bit of new code.

I have tried that. It works for some users but not others. What is strange is that all the users are in the same default "Registered Users" usergroup. I even set the permissions for the RSS feed forum so that Registered Users can't search it.

If I upgrade to the new version of the mod, does it have a setting that lets me exclude individual forum sections from the search but would still allow users to see those forums if they want to view them?
