Local search filter

Postby alfke » Thu Jun 07, 2018 12:30 pm

Hello,

I do a local search for DOGS in a group, but also want to remove any results that contain CATS or CAT. Is there a way to do this? I'm using Newsbin Pro 6.80RC4 Build 5038

Thanks

Not by using a search string. You can generate a filter profile though that SUBJECT accepts "DOGS" and rejects "CATS" then apply the profile to the loaded list of posts. I could look into adding negation to local search since Internet search supports it.
