Exclude specific words from search

Post by believingjew »

Hello, I need to exclude specific words from a search, to reducer the number of responses. As an example if I search for "John Wayne" I need to exclude "Gacy" so I just get hits from the movie actor and not the child killer. Thank you.

Found a solution:

To exclude a term from a search:
Right-click the Filter box and make sure Use Regular Expressions is checked.
Paste this into the Filter box (replace word1 with term you want to exclude): ^((?!word1).)*$
To exclude more than one term, paste this and separate terms with a pipe |: ^((?!word1|word2).)*$
