Using variables in the search panel
« on: November 18, 2021, 11:29:12 PM »
Hello.

There is no searchable field for a file extension, so I tried to use the search tab with such requests :
{filename:-3,3}  is not ‘jpg’
{type} is not  'JPEG'

It doesn’t seem working. I understand I can’t use a variable in this context. Is that right?

That's correct.

Try:

filetype is not JPEG


Have a look at the list of Searchable Fields.  Catalog->Searchable Fields...

HTH,
