Smart Search filter excluding more than one class
Dear Kentico,
I am using the "Smart Search filter", and I would like to have an option where I can exclude two classes. I tried the Syntax below:

-classname;custom.type1,custom.type2;Excluding Type 1 and Type 2

It works for one, but not for two. I this possible?

RE:Smart Search filter excluding more than one class
Dear,

Have you tried checking the Lucene.Net syntax and using the condition like (also, after classname should be colon, not semicolon):
-classname:custom.type1 OR -classname:custom.type2

Best regards,

Hmmm... I am not sure we are talking of the same thing.
I mean the web part "Smart Search Filter" and the code goes into one of the attributes, Filter Properties > Values:
Colons, and the syntax did not work in there.

RE:Smart Search filter excluding more than one class
Hi,

I got it - however, the exclusion is not made in the filter, this has to be done in the search results web part. Or, I am not getting what are you trying to do since right now it does not make any sense to use search syntax in filter values.

Best regards,
Juraj Ondrus
