Community Inbox Filters

Manual filtering

Manual filtering allows you to create ad hoc filters using the common logical operators.

The search takes into consideration the text of the message and the author’s name. So, when the logical operators are included in the search, the search takes into consideration only the text of the message and not the author’s usernames. In other words, only the classic plain text search works with usernames.

The help panel displays when you click (approach) the search field.

Use the logical operators to expand or narrow down your search.

• AND → conjunction

• OR → disjunction

• NOT or - (dash) → negation

• quotation marks (“search term”) → exact match

• parentheses → specify the order of your search terms

Logical operators work only if they are in UPPERCASE

Examples of effective text search:

• national geographic

• apple NOT macintosh

• (((white OR red) AND wine) OR cheese) AND "made in Italy" NOT "made in France"

Time filters

Time filters allow you to display messages that you define by the following characteristics:

• calendar
  Define the period between two dates or last n days for which you want to display the messages. Calendar filters start at 0:00 AM and end at 11:59 PM.

• time of the day
  Define the period between two times of a 24 hour day for which you want to display the messages.

For example, you can display the messages received every day within the last 2 months between 8 am and 10 am on each day.

Time filters are display-only. In other words, you must activate them for each session and they cannot be saved as a part of the feed.
