Hi there,

I was creating a bulk mail. I wanted to send it to all users who specified "Essen" in a profile field (a city in Germany). But then among the recipients were users who had specified "Hessen" in the profile field (a state in Germany). Can this be prevented?

This like is utilizing a contains-like search pattern, which is why you are getting results like this because it is looking for a non-exact match. Whereas, you are wanting an exact match here. I have tagged a developer to confirm this is intended.

This is currently intended but is a good feature suggestion to restrict the member filters to exact matches.

In the meantime, depending on the size of the potential data set you may wish to set these fields up as select boxes with restricted options for exact matches and better tracking of this type of info.

Are you going to note it as a suggestion or should I still put that in the section "Feature Suggestions"?

Please do post in feature suggestions, as you may well get others with thoughts on this
