This extension is damaging the meta search engine of my wiki, can it be the version of the wiki (1.27.1)? or, what is it?

I don't understand what you mean by "damaging the meta search engine". Since I'm using the extension, I know it works, but I may be able to help if you can explain what sort of damage you are seeing.

Hey. I think I know what he refers to. I posted something similar a while ago: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Tl7hyu6y9kdcs1o1

And thanks to this post, I disabled Lockdown and search suggestions now work. Is there an alternative to it? At least for special pages? As I was using it only to lock a special page and have it accessible by bureaucrats.

Yes, but that one just gives me a list of available rights, rather than a specific way to block access to a special page. For example, what do I need to add to block access to exporting (as a user right, that is, as I read the information on how to altogether remove that special page)?

There are no permissions for exporting pages ... anyone is allowed to do that. Adding a right would be pretty easy, but we should really file a bug for that.
