Hi John,

Haven't used the search extension, so I may be completely off.

But, shouldn't the unless_content come *inside* search:results:each ?  
That's how I exclude pages from showing up in the menu (that's just a 
r:children:each...)

<r:children:each by="published_at" order="desc" status="published">
   <r:unless_content part="no_menu"><li><r:link /></li></r:unless_content>
</r:children:each>

Cheers,
Mohit.
