Hello, I can’t figure out how to create a filter that would allow me to obtain all topics from one specific user who is the author of that topic. The goal is to then select all these topics and assign them a tag. I tried using filters, but I couldn’t get the results I wanted. Thanks.

Does it have to be a filter, or would it be okay to use the search function instead? You could search for group:groupname in:first and select the topics from the search results to bulk add the tag.

Finaly found in the advanced filter section with created-by, now would be great if created-by would take into account groups but I don’t think it does ?

[image] Moin: group:groupname Yeap that works but I need to restrict to Topics authored by these group members (excluding replies)

Isn’t that what in:first does?

Does not give any result for me for that syntax: “group:Expert-Elite in:first”, removing in:first gives all posts from that group.

Odd. I cannot repro this on Meta. Assuming it’s this forum , something like group:autocad_experts in:first (and other groups visible) works.

https://meta.discourse.org/search?q=Group%3Ateam%20in%3Afirst works well for me. Did you try name or full-name of the group?

All topics authored by a specific user, how?

Hmm… I don’t see the option to do that. It would be nice if something like created_by:group:group_name or created_by:group_name exists .
