Don't want to walk index pages

I actually found an error in my dowalk script causing that problem, but after fixing that, I re-ran the indexing with verbosity set to 4, and the Exclude by field option did nothing.
Webinator indexed all the pages with the newly added "indexpage" meta tag, and all those pages we were trying to eliminate are now showing up in the search results...

Did you see any error messages in the vortex.log? The checkexfield function is the one that checks the field.

There are no errors in the vortex.log file.

I think the exclude by field settings you want are
Query = true
meta = indexpage
exclude = pages only
And make sure you're doing "new" rather than "refresh" walks.

If you've customized dowalk try an unmodified one from the website example scripts page to see if the same problem occurs.
