Good plugin with good support from the developer

I was looking for a plugin for excluding public pages which are not meant to be discovered normally but instead should be displayed only in certain circumstances. An example is a newsletter subscription confirmation page.

I found only two good candidates: this plugin (IM8 Exclude Pages) and another plugin called “Simply Exclude”. I tried Simply Exclude but it turns out to be not as simple as the name suggests, so I went for this plugin.

In the beginning, this plugin lacks the functionality to exclude pages from search results. I posted a feature request for it and to my surprise the feature got implemented within only a few days!!!

I am happy enough to have found a good plugin, but even more so to know that the plugin is still actively supported from the developer.
