Daniel F Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 If you're using MySQL, you could add it as a stopword https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/fulltext-stopwords.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariAge Posted July 9, 2023 Author Share Posted July 9, 2023 Oh, I mean when you enter a search term, not a term I'd want to remove permanently. For instance, something like, "quadrun reproduction -7800" I know how to do it when performing an SQL query, but I'm guessing there's no support to do this from the forum search. ..Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariAge Posted July 9, 2023 Author Share Posted July 9, 2023 Great, thank you for confirming. The search results page doesn't show that you are excluding search terms when you prefix a term with "-". Nor are there any clues you can use "+" and "-", so that would be helpful if it was displayed somewhere. Here's what I see when using the following terms, quadrun prototype -2732 Thank you for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
