I have the quotes module installed (and 46273 quotes) and I would like for the search indgex function to skip any nodes that are of this type. Is there currently any way to do this? I hate for the search engine to have to index 46343 nodes when it really only needs to index 70. Also posted in thread http://drupal.org/node/28461

Since quotes are nodes, they are simply indexed as nodes in node_update_index(). There is no way that I know of to have node.module skip indexing certain node types. Until there is, there is nothing that I can do.

Yes, it can be done. Do you still need this? It is much easier in 6.x.

While you're waiting, you may find this issue illuminating: Exclude node types from search index

If you ever come back to this, re-open the issue.
