 This is a field in `quartz.config.ts` under the main [[configuration]] which allows you to specify a list of patterns to effectively exclude from parsing all together. Any valid [fast-glob](https://github.com/mrmlnc/fast-glob#pattern-syntax) pattern works here.

 > Marking something as private via either a plugin or through the `ignorePatterns` pattern will only prevent a page from being included in the final built site. If your GitHub repository is public, also be sure to include an ignore for those in the `.gitignore` of your Quartz. See the `git` [documentation](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore#_pattern_format) for more information.

+## Unlisted Pages
+
+Quartz supports **Unlisted Pages**, which allow you to publish notes that remain **accessible by direct link** but **hidden from navigation components** such as:
+
+- the explorer sidebar  
+- recent notes lists  
+- tag or folder listings  
+
+This is useful for sharing content privately with collaborators, collecting feedback, or keeping drafts semi-private without fully unpublishing them.
+
+There are two mechanisms provided to enable unlisted pages:
+
+### Frontmatter Flags
+
+To mark a single page as unlisted, add `unlisted: true` to its frontmatter.
+
+### Quartz Config
+
+If you want to apply this behavior to multiple files or folders, you can use the `unlistedPatterns` field in your `quartz.config.ts`.
+This accepts an array of fast-glob patterns that identify which pages should be treated as unlisted.
+
+> [!note]
+> As with `ignorePatterns`, fast-glob syntax differs slightly from Bash glob syntax. Using Bash-style patterns may lead to unexpected results.
