Hey @medwards -- Indeed, that's what we're hoping to do with search. Not everyone wants to use Reds, so I'm actually planning on divorcing Reds from core, and allowing third-party plugins to interface with the routes.
Is there a way to have a sub-forum blocked from search?

We have several posts in a NodeBB I belong to that we would like to keep (call it the History Channel) but not include in search. Since I don't have admin rights I cannot peruse the settings to see what our particular setup is capable of. I'd like to be able to present a solution to this. Right now the threads are archived (invisible).
TIA

Hi @Keith-Barrows, the db search plugin has a feature that lets you exclude categories from search.
Also deleted topics/posts shouldn't show up on search as well.

So, If I had a structure like:- Library
- Poems
- School
- Science
- Art
- History Channel --> exclude from search, make read only
- Labs
The admin could then select the category (is that another word for forum?) and exclude it? Just want to make sure I am following the terminology.
Thanks.

That's correct, a category === forum in NodeBB. If you exclude History Channel, posts from that category(forum) won't show up in search results.
