Filter for posts not created by users of a specific group?

[Brandon_Foster]

Hi Folks,

I’ve been playing around with the advanced search and haven’t been able to find a way to do this:

• I’d like to find all posts with no replies (status:noreplies) while excluding posts created by users in specific group(s).

I’m essentially trying to find all posts which may have slipped through the cracks without a response which do not include posts my teammates have made.

Back when I asked, I found that no, there is not a way to add negative search terms. I think this is standard with search, although I haven’t experimented to see if Boolean searches work or not.

My question was specifically for tags. Here’s the post in question:

Negative filtering: Excluding tags from search

Is it possible to filter out search results based on tags? For example, to do a search, but exclude the tag “trigger-warning”? We have a community that frequently discusses sensitive information that we don’t want to disallow, but some users may wish to avoid. (Writers.) I’m thinking it is not (beyond the standard “muting” of a tag) but I wanted to confirm.

Ah interesting, thanks for the info Heather!
