how to exclude listitem url from the search results

Question

We have several documents with 'SharePoint' in the title but our Online URL also has sharepoint (https://.sharepoint.com/). When users search for sharepoint in search results webpart, it returns all results because all results have that in their URL. How can we exclude this portion of the URL from the search results?

HI Parthasarathy, If you are looking for a result from one document library, then you can disable the crawl from another document librarires. http://www.sharepointdiary.com/2015/06/exclude-sharepoint-site-list-from-search-results.html. https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/161903/in-the-search-results-web-part-can-i-filter-to-exclude-a-list-from-the-results.

hi thivegar thanks for the reply, I used that it works ,but I have custom column called document type in that library. I filtered the search results webpart to search the documents only from one document library.i have created one managed property for custom column document type.before it was working perfectly when I search the value from the document type column.now after I add the contentclass:sp_list* it did not work.any suggestions for that.
