----------------------------------------

             Summary: Can we add a way to exclude documents or folders from being crawled on the Livelink connector?
                 Key: CONNECTORS-1017
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1017
             Project: ManifoldCF
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: David Morana
             Fix For: ManifoldCF 2.0


This is related to CONNECTORS-1016.
End users are trying to "hide" certain folders and docs by removing owners and owner groups and some of these contain highly restricted info so users do not want these indexed at all.
I propose creating a special group called "DoNotIndex" in Livelink and if the MCF sees that group on any folder or document it will exclude it from the crawl.
So this way we're not managing a huge black list in the MCF and this gives end users an easy way to exclude objects from the crawl.

What do you think?
