    I have the Ivory Search plugin installed and I get spammed through the search.

    Here’s an example of such spam: https://prnt.sc/1wz3wmz

    I noindexed ?= pages but they build links to these spammy search URLs, so there is a chance Google will ignore noindex in robots.

    Is there a way to diallow all non-Latin characters or special characters like emojis, etc. from being searched?

    I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

    Currently, the Ivory Search plugin does not provide this functionality but I will consider implementing it in the future version of the plugin.

    In the meantime, you can achieve this by developing custom code.

    If you are not a developer then you can consider hiring a developer to develop it for you. You can hire a developer from any freelance site or WordPress agency.

    You can also consider us to develop it for you using the form https://ivorysearch.com/custom-work/

    Best regards,
