Premade Groups Filter helps you limit the search results of the LFG Premade Groups tool. You can filter by difficulty or for groups with a specific composition of members, e.g. one tank, no heals and 3 dps. Filtering is done using a separate window next to the list of groups. Advanced users are able to enter powerful filter expressions to find exactly what they are looking for.
Examples of what can easily be found with Premade Groups Filter:
- mythic dungeon groups that still need a healer
- raids that have not yet defeated any bosses and already have more than 10 members and an item level requirement of 850
- PvP groups with an honor level requirement and voice chat

Would be nice to add the function to select a dungeon for what i looking for.
Example: When i choose M+ then it will show me the option to select dungeons for what i looking for.
How do I choose the M+ difficulty level, eg I want to look for King's rest 5 or Freehold 6, how do I code that?
Edit: got it, you just type eg "+5" on the WoW's own LFG tool.
Hey, is it possible to "comment out" (think thats the right term?) an expression, so that I can quickly comment out something and have a different filter instead
example:
usually running this: (tanks==1 or heals==1)
but when for example looking for specific dungeons I'd like to comment this out like so
--(tanks==1 or heals==1)
wm or tur or fh
In reply to Paniro_:
At the moment, only multiline lua comments are possible and there must be a newline at the end, e.g.
tanks >= 1
--[[ and tanks == 0 ]]--
<invisible newline>
Next version will support single line comments using two dashes.
You could also use a macro to switch to a specific configuration, have a look at the FAQ how to do that.
In reply to baerenhard:
Just got the update - thank you so much! :D
I want to add the advanced filter to only show dungeons: Mechagon - Workshop and Freehold
but I can't figure out what to put to make it work.
Update:
Got it, I wrote opmw or fh
Suggestion: add the possibility to filter out groups using multiple name filters.
For example for mount hunt: "Anh" or "rei" or "Ha Li" or "Ren" in advanced settings so it would show all groups with these names.
Right now I have to rewrite names of rares just to look for single one at a time.
In reply to busted_bunny:
This is not possible. Starting with the Battle for Azeroth Prepatch, the group name is protected by Blizzard and can no longer be evaluated by any addon. Have a look at the FAQ for more information.
Suggestion that I was thinking about considering rio. I'd like to have a keyword to filter out the dungeons that could use some rio boosting. For example myrio < 100. It would then list the dungeons for which I have a raider.io score of less than 100, so I can start pushing those.
Really love this addon, but i also need this functionality when starting a group so i can filter applicants :)

Feel free to beta-test my latest addon 😄. Expressions are bit more complicated, though. Feedback welcome via PM or Github issue.
Yo i love the last feature you added being able to filter groups on if they have killed a boss or not!!
(for reference: https://github.com/0xbs/premade-groups-filter/wiki/Keywords) :
Hi.
It is possible to implement a easy way to filter the dungeons that we want to do?
Thanks for your work
In reply to jorgecardoso220:
Sure, have a look a the Full List of Keywords linked above. There is a keyword for each current dungeon. Just concatenate them, e.g. (wm or opm)
Also read "Why are results sometimes disappearing when using the search/reload button multiple times?" in the FAQ, also linked above.
In reply to baerenhard:
yes i know that we can use the keywords. my question was if you can make some kind of window with the different dungeon names where we can pick the ones that we want, without having to write the names.
In reply to jorgecardoso220:
I will think about it. The main reason why such an window does not yet exist is that PGF can only filter the 50 random search results returned by Blizzard and not ask the server for exactly these dungeons. This makes searching for multiple dungeons somewhat unreliable, because sometimes there are the right dungeons in the result and sometimes not. If you are looking for only one dungeon, you should always use Blizzard’s search panel. Even for two, I would consider that and switch between the two. For three or more PGF is the only way.
The second reason is that I find typing three dungeons abbreviations into the box quite fast.
am i stupid or is there no option to search for keys. made a new alt and was looking for a way to search for +2-+4 keys only since there is a limited number of search results in window
In reply to tarnez:
As answered just one comment below yours and in the FAQ, this is no longer possible. Starting with the Battle for Azeroth Prepatch, the group name is protected by Blizzard and can no longer be evaluated by any addon. However, you can use the search bar above the group list together with PGF. E.g. if you type "+5" in Blizzards search field, it will find groups with +4, +5 and +6.
Hi, I need to filter out all groups containing the term "CTA". How do I do this?
In reply to notanotherforumname:
This is not possible anymore. Blizzard blocked addons from accessing the group name or description. Have a look at the FAQ.
