Description

The Hidden Documents ^(hide) option is useful to keep certain documents from appearing by name in reports. The Hidden Documents ^(hide) option does not prevent documents from being counted toward total accesses, hourly throughput or any other report. To completely ignore a set of documents, use the Ignored Documents ^(ignore) option instead.

Documents that match any of the patterns listed for the Hidden Documents ^(hide) option will be hidden from the Chart Top Documents ^(documents) report, the Chart Top Trails ^(trails) report, and so forth. Each character of the document name is matched against the pattern. An * in the pattern matches any number of characters in the document name. Patterns have additional features, including support for regular expressions; for more information about patterns, see the Patterns and Regular Expressions section.

Note that the Remove These Suffixes ^(suffixes) option is applied first. If the Hidden Documents ^(hide) option does not appear, all documents permitted by the Allowed Documents ^(allow) option and not filtered by the Ignored Documents ^(ignore) option are candidates to appear in the popular documents report.
