Soft Filtering Examples

Soft filtering works based on a threshold set in My Settings. The sum of positive tags less negative tags must be equal to or greater than this threshold to appear in a search. The following examples assume a threshold set to 0.

Using My Tags to filter undesirable galleries unless other tag(s) are present.

This is a passive search that will work with or without a search on the gallery list.

Example: The user does not wish to see any f:stockings galleries, unless there is also f:footjob present.

• In My Tags, create a tag set.
• Add f:stockings, set a weight of -1, do not select Hidden, and click save.
• Add f:footjob, set a weight of 2, optionally select Watched, and click save.

A gallery that contains f:stockings but not f:footjob will have an overall weight of -1, and so will be filtered from the main gallery list or search, as it is less than the set threshold of 0.

A gallery containing f:stockings + f:footjob will have an overall weight of +1, which is greater than than the set threshold of 0, and so will be included in the main gallery list or search.

A more in-depth example:

The user wants to find only galleries with the following conditions:

- Does not contain m:yaoi, unless it contains m:crossdressing AND m:kissing.

• m:yaoi added to a tag set with a weight of -3.
• m:crossdressing and m:kissing added with a weight of +2 each.

A gallery containing m:yaoi and m:crossdressing will only have a weight of -1 which is below the set threshold, but a gallery containing m:yaoi, m:crossdressing, and m:kissing, will have a weight of +1, allowing it to be included in the main gallery list or search.

Using My Tags to conditionally search for galleries that contain at least 1 desired tag

This is an active search that requires at least 1 tag that you wish to be included to be searched, and a list of other tags of which at least one must be included. Example: The user wants to see only English results, and wants galleries that contain either stockings or pantyhose.

• In My Tags, create a tag set.
• Add l:english, set a weight of -1, do not select Hidden, and click save.
• Add f:stockings, set a weight of 2, optionally select Watched, and click save.
• Add f:pantyhose, set a weight of 2, optionally select Watched, and click save.
• Do a search for l:english$.

The search forces only galleries that have the l:english tag, but l:english results alone will be filtered due to having an overall weight of -1, which is less than the set threshold of 0. Galleries that contain either stockings or pantyhose, or which contain both, will have a score of +1, or +2 for both, which is greater than the set threshold of 0.

A more in-depth example:

The user wants to find only galleries with the following conditions:

- Does not contain f:netorare.
- Does not contain f:cheating.
- Does contain f:big breasts.
- Does contain f:femdom.
- Contains f:stockings OR f:pantyhose OR f:footjob.

• f:big breasts added to a tag set with a weight of -1.
• f:stockings, f:pantyhose, and f:footjob added with a weight of +2 each.
• Optionally f:netorare and f:cheating added and Hidden is selected for both.
• If the optional tags to be hidden were added, then the user does a search for f:"big breasts$" f:femdom$.
• If the optional tags to be hidden were not added, then the user does a search for f:"big breasts$" f:femdom$ -f:netorare$ -f:cheating$.
