I am having a problem with the Exclude unreferenced topics and Baggage features not working. Meaning when I do a search all topics display even though they are not in the TOC.

I even did a simple test.

I created a new TOC with only one topic.
Created a new BLANK topic.
Created a new WebHelp SSL
Used the new TOC and selected both Exclude options.
Generated the SSL and created a test search using a common word in the other topics.

Results: Many topics list.

So I thought maybe there is something funky with my project.

I opened a RH Sample and had the same result.

Help! I need to get this done today, what am I missing?

I believe an unreferenced topic is one that is known about in RH but not referenced in any file (e.g. TOC, Index, topic links, etc.). In effect these should be the file displayed in the Unreferenced Topics report. Try running that from the Tools > Reports menu and let us know if they are actually unreferenced.

Colum is correct so it follows that the one thing that will find an unreferenced topic is a search. I have just tested what you report and Rh10 is incorrectly including unreferenced topics in the build.
