Exclude "modified" and "author" from Sharepoint search results
Hi Community,
we're trying to set up an internal phone book on sharepoint base.
Therefor we're using the PnP Modern Search.
When I create a new entry in the sharepoint list "Production Phone" and search for my persons information I get as result, myself and also the Production phone.
Is it possible to exclude the "modified" and "author" field from the PnP Modern Search Results?
It's not an option to use a "system account" because we have to share this account then with other users which creates ressources in the phone book.
Thank you
Hello DominikA9522
you can add more conditions with OR in your query. As example:
((Title:{SearchTerms}) OR (Building:{SearchTerms}))

Hello DominikA9522
you can try to use it with an exactly matching in title, or another field, with your search term. Here are an example search query template
{SearchBoxQuery} Title:{SearchTerms}
I have more then this two entries created with my David Account.

Hi DaveMehr365
thank you very much for your response.
As additional information: at the moment our Query Text looks like that: {searchTerms} * ContentType:Phonebook
We created a new content type with some columns ( like Email, Phone numer, firstname, Building,... ). All of them should be searchable with the search text.
I added your suggestion and it works for the "Title" (Lastname) but how it's possible to search then for all other columns?
Hope you can point me to that.
Thank you very much.
Best regards
Dominik
