 * Hi, like this plug-in, but it doesn’t filter out page coding from search results.
   For example, if I search “classes”, one result might read:
 * [vc_row content_placement=”top”][/vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][vc_custom_heading
   text=”Registration” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”
   yes” el_class=”title” css=”.vc_custom_1463098521330{margin-top: -10px !important;}”][
   vc_column_text]Purchase the Full Certification or individual courses below. Note
   that early registration…
 * The coding inside the brackets [ ] is not relevant to the search results. I tried
   adding filtering in the Better Search filter configuration. I tried [/vc_row],
   but that threw a bunch of errors.
 * Any suggestions for filtering would be appreciated! Thanks.
    Steve

 * You can’t do that with the plugin currently unfortunately.
 * The issue with this is that it indexes the post content and the post content 
   keeps the shortcode which gets indexed
