Hello, having deleted a hidden page in Plan on Website X5 Pro, the link on the web still appears. I would like to know how an old link can be deleted after being displayed, during a google search for example. Because with this deletion the web link now displays Not Found The requested URL was not found on this server. It would be necessary that during a google search by typing these keywords the link can no longer exist at all. Kind regards.

from all search engines* sorry.
O course...
the first step, which you have already taken, is to delete the page.
Over time, search engines will realise that the page no longer exists and will remove it from searches.
My instructions apply to google; BUT you have to do the same for ALL search engines where you want to have it deleted.
Either wait until they notice it, or request the deletion.
There is no other way.
Such pages can be marked as "gone" via htaccess with the http status 410.
In the htaccess you add the lines
ErrorDocument 410 /page-not-found.html
Redirect 410 /missing-page.html/
The first line Specifies the document to be called when the page is "gone". You can there also use the same document as for the 404 message (404-error-message.html). The second line redirects the no longer available page to the error page.
