. Please give me some of your time. I have done what I could without your assistance, tried and tried, but I am stumped here...This all has to do with the "Follow" tab and its options...
In "follow" tab the filter button and its menu options only seems to work when I am doing a "custom search" and hit the search button next to it.
However when I try and use the "filter" button and its options with the "search users>location" and then hitting follow next to it....the filter options that I set up (im talking about the filter button underneath the "advanced" button) do not implement itself. I made sure to click save button in the filter.
That "filter" button with its options should apply to all of the Fields in the "follow" tab (follow follwers of / follow followed by / follow users in a group...etc) . I dont know if its just me but its not working for me.
What I did was setup a search term in the search field for "search users". Then I set a location. I also setup some options in the filter menu (filter button) which the values "ignore username contains" and "ignore description contains" were defined and then hit follow that was located next to the search users>location>follow.
I went to the processing bot and watch it process, however it was not processing with the "filter" options that I had defined. It still followed people with names that I had defined in "ignore username contains"
So I dont know what the deal is. Even when I try using that "custom search" thing you have in follow I am getting some bugs, when doing custom search with "search users" as the defined action in "selections" under build custom search (i clicked save), I will type "Rock, nashville" in the custom search blank field like prompted (when in "build custom search" and you highlight "user search" a text appears and says "to include a location filter, please specify your search as:search term, location. So I thought rock was my search_term and nashville was my location. Im cool at this point, I thought I have done everything right. BUT when i hit search to process it I go to the processor to watch and make sure it is working the processor doesnt get very far before making me stumped...Here is a edited log with my personal information ****'d out...

Anyways martin I feel like I am giving a good effort to sort things out according to your instructions in the software. I am trying different things and even exploring different options to try and get a positive outcome. For now though I am stumped with what I have mentioned here in this post. I hope you enjoy your holidays.
