Exclude column from search
I have SP Online site (modern) with one document library. How can I exclude "Editor" field (Modified By) from search on that doc lib / site (but not entire tenant)??

Hello MarioZagreb
there are no permissions on column. It's not possible to exclude only one column from search, only possible with the whole library or site.
Best, Dave

DaveMehr365Thanks for the answer.
This was possible on SP on-premise. Why is it not possible in the cloud?
This makes that search totally unusable for me.
How can I replace that search in SP doc lib with my own search?

Hey MarioZagreb
interesting, i don't know this OOTB setting in SharePoint On-Premises...
You can configure a custom search for your site Microsoft Search box:

Thanks for the response.
Maybe I am wrong here, but I think that there was an option (op-premise) in settings called "Searchable columns"?
