How do I filter explicit

Posted under General

Click on "My Account", then "Settings" and enter "rating:explicit" into your blacklist. Make sure it's on a line by itself. You might want to also add "rating:questionable" as well (also on a separate line).

Just to add onto what the others have said, if you're thinking of going the blacklist route, then fewer entries are better for performance reasons. So instead of using rating:questionable and rating:explicit, you could just do -rating:safe. For more information on blacklists, check out Help:Blacklists.

Finally, something to think on is that pictures are by default shown and are then hidden by the blacklist Javascript function. This causes a momentary appearance of the items you have blacklisted to appear on the monitor. To counter this, I developed a Custom CSS at forum #132142 that causes the opposite to occur, i.e. posts are hidden by default and are revealed by the blacklist Javascript function. This prevents content that you don't want to see from ever appearing.

You can also enable “Safe mode” in your user settings, which has the same effect as using safebooru.donmai.us but without the risk of accidentally following a link to an unsafe post on the main site. Then add additional unwanted “safe” tags to your blacklist, as mentioned by chinatsu, any you’re good to go.

Enabling Safe mode or using Safebooru has the advantage of not even loading an questionable or explicit posts. If you blacklist those, your browser still loads them, as mentioned by BrokenEagle98.

Can the blacklist item be a negated tag? That is a disallowed search, and I thought blacklists used the same tech.

First off, -rating:safe is an allowed search under any/all conditions (Help:Cheatsheet).

Second off, when working with the Blacklist, everything is opposite. Putting -rating:safe is the equivalent to putting rating:safe in the search bar.

Forgot to answer this specifically. In fact, Blacklists use a different tech, namely Javascript which is processed after page load.
