    Filtering words in Premade Groups Filter

    I have no idea how to do that. If I try to use

    Code:
    not name:find("words")
    it either doesn't work, or gives an error.

  3. #3
    Code:
    (name:find("10") or
    name:find("11") or
    name:find("12") or
    name:find("13") or
    name:find("14") or
    name:find("15")) and
    
    (dps <= 2) and
    
    (tanks >= 1 or heals >= 1) and
    
    (not name:find("wts") and
    not name:find("boost") and
    not name:find("depleted") and
    not comment:find("web"))

    See if this one works for you, I use it for mythic+ groups.

    Doesn't work.

    I'm trying to search for Nighthold groups while filtering anything that has "recruit" or "recruitment" in the title.

    If I try this:

    Code:
    nh
    
    (not name:find("recruit"))
    it gives an error.

    Try my LFG addon if it does not work.

    It's because there should be "and" after "nh", for example:
    Code:
    nh and
    
    (not name:find("recruit"))

    This example shows why leaving coding work for users is not very user-friendly imo. It is just like using OS like DOS in 1990s.

    For example, it is really hard for most people to write "hello world" correctly.

    There are quite many addons that can help with group filtering. I initially used Premade Filter but I switched to Premade Groups Filter when I needed a little bit more control over the filter settings. It has a slight learning curve, but overall it's the most powerful and flexible filtering addon that I've used so far.

    Just writing your own addons for filtering groups if you want absolute control.
