Exclude Webpages from Portal Search Results in Enhanced Data Model

Hi,

I’m running into an issue with the portal search functionality on Power Pages using Enhanced Data Model.

We have configured our search query to only include the Knowledge Base entity.

However, when users select the “All” option in the portal’s search filter, the results still include Web Pages (from the Site Component table).

If we change the filter from “All” to “Knowledge Article,” only the correct results from the Knowledge Base are displayed, as expected.

It seems that the Site Component table (which contains web pages) is managed and non-editable, so we’re unable to modify or remove its Quick Find view to prevent these pages from being indexed in search.

Is there any way to exclude the Site Component table (Web Pages) from being indexed or included in the portal search results, given that the table is managed and non-editable?
Alternatively, is there a recommended approach to ensure the “All” filter only searches within specified entities like Knowledge Articles?
