# Advanced Search for X (Twitter) - The Ultimate Search & Management Tool **Welcome to the all-in-one extension that dramatically evolves information gathering, ego-searching, and tweet management on X (formerly Twitter).** "Advanced Search for X" is not just a tool to help with search commands. It is a must-have tool for power users that adds a feature-rich floating window to the standard X interface, integrating a powerful "Search Engine," "Local Bookmarks," "Advanced Mute Filters," and "Account/List Management." You no longer need to memorize complex search commands. All operations can be done through an intuitive and beautiful GUI. --- ## 🌟 Key Features (Highlights) 1. **Command-Free Advanced Search**: Perform complex searches simply by filling out a form. 2. **Local Favorites**: A tagging and categorization-enabled save function, independent of X's official bookmarks. 3. **Powerful Mute**: Supports Regular Expressions (Regex) and word boundary matching to purify your timeline. 4. **Folder Management**: Organize accounts, lists, and saved searches with simple Drag & Drop. 5. **Privacy Focused**: All data is stored locally within your browser. No data is sent to external servers. --- ## 🔍 1. Advanced Search X's search function is powerful, but mastering commands like `from:`, `since:`, and `min_faves:` is difficult. With this tool, you can combine the following conditions to extract exactly the information you are looking for. ### Keyword Settings * **All of these words (AND)**: Searches for tweets containing all entered words. * **This exact phrase**: Searches for tweets containing the phrase exactly as entered, without changing the word order. * **Any of these words (OR)**: Hits if any one of the entered words is included. * **None of these words (NOT)**: Excludes tweets containing specific words (ideal for removing noise). * **Hashtags**: Searches for tags starting with `#`. ### Language & Filters * **Language**: Narrow down tweets written in specific languages like English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc. * **Advanced Filters**: * **Verified Accounts**: Only from accounts with an official checkmark, or exclude them. * **Links**: Include or exclude tweets with URLs. * **Media**: Search for tweets with images or videos. * **Reposts (RT)**: Choose to include, show only, or completely exclude reposts. * **Replies**: Control whether to include conversations, extract only replies, or exclude them. ### Precision Search Scope (Pro Feature) This is the decisive difference from general search tools. * **Exclude matches only in display name**: Eliminates noise where the keyword is in the user's name but not in the tweet text. * **Exclude matches only in username (@ID)**: Excludes tweets where the keyword is only in the `@ID`. * *By enabling these, you can search purely for **tweets where the keyword is included in the body text**.* ### Engagement Thresholds * **Min replies**: Tweets with more than X replies. * **Min likes**: Tweets that have buzzed with more than X likes. * **Min reposts**: Tweets that have been widely shared. ### Date & Time * **Date Range**: Specify Start Date (Since) and End Date (Until) via a calendar picker. * **Quick Shortcuts**: Input ranges like "Past 24h," "Past week," "Past month," or "Past year" with a single click. ### User Specifications * **From**: Tweets sent by a specific user. * **To**: Tweets sent to a specific user. * **Mentioning**: Tweets mentioning a specific user. * **Exclude Switch**: By using the checkbox next to each field, you can easily create conditions like "Tweets **NOT** from a specific user." ### Scope * **Accounts**: Choose between "All accounts" or "Accounts you follow". * **Location**: Choose between "Everywhere" or "Near you". --- ## 💾 2. Search History & Saved You will never again wonder, "What was that search condition I used earlier?" ### Search History * **Auto-Record**: History is automatically saved every time you execute a search. * **Re-run**: Simply click from the list to search again with the same conditions. * **Sort & Search**: Even if your history grows, you can find items quickly by filtering with keywords or sorting by date/name. * **Secret Mode**: If you don't want to leave a history, turn on the Secret button at the top of the window to pause recording. ### Saved Searches * **Favorite Conditions**: Stock frequently used complex search conditions in the "Saved" tab. * **Folder Organization**: Organize growing search conditions by creating folders and dragging & dropping them. * **Rename**: Change names to something easy to understand (e.g., "Tech Trends," "Cat Photos," etc.) for better management. --- ## ⭐ 3. Local Favorites Save tweets to your browser's unique database, separate from X's official "Bookmarks" or "Likes." No notifications are sent to the opponent, and it is designed to be less affected by API limits. ### How to Save * **One-Click Save**: Simply press the "★ (Star)" button that appears on every tweet in the timeline. * **Auto-Expand**: When saving, long tweets (those with "Show more") are automatically expanded and the full text is saved. ### Tag Management (Powerful) You can freely attach "Tags" to saved tweets. * **Color Coding**: Set your favorite colors for tags. * **Hierarchy**: Create a hierarchical structure like PC folders (e.g., sub-tags within tags). * **Filtering**: List only tweets with specific tags. ### Viewing & Management * **Rich Display**: Saved tweets are beautifully displayed not just with text, but also with images, video thumbnails, quoted tweets, and link cards (OGP). * **Search**: Search within the body text or usernames of your saved tweets. * **Jump to Original**: The "Open" button allows you to instantly move to the original tweet page. You can verify it on X as long as it hasn't been deleted. --- ## 🚫 4. Advanced Mute Achieve highly advanced filtering that X's standard mute function cannot handle. * **Regex Support**: If you know programming, you can mute using complex patterns (e.g., starts with specific string, contains numbers, etc.). * **Flexible Matching**: * **Case Sensitivity**: Distinguish between `Apple` and `apple`. * **Word Boundary**: Control filtering so that muting `cat` doesn't hide `category`. * **Two Hiding Modes**: * **Hidden**: Completely removes the corresponding tweets without a trace. * **Collapsed**: Displays only a bar saying "Muted: XX", which can be clicked to reveal the content. * **Re-Mute Function**: After expanding to view the content, a button appears to hide it again with one click. --- ## 📁 5. Account & List Management Keep "memos" of users or lists you care about, separate from follows or subscriptions. ### Account Management * **Add from Profile**: A "+" (Add) button appears on user profile pages for one-click addition to your list. * **Folders**: Categorize and manage users with your own folders like "Work," "Hobbies," or "News." * **Fast Access**: Clicking an item in the list navigates to the profile instantly without a full page reload (SPA navigation). ### List Management * **Add from List Page**: An add button also appears on public List pages. * **URL Storage**: Stock useful List URLs and organize them in folders. --- ## ⚙️ 6.
