Hello! I’d like to see all the tasks in a saved filter still not assigned to a member of my team. Ideally, the filter would be something like
(done != true) && (assignees not in …)
Is this currently possible?
Thank you and have a nice day.
done = false && (assignees not in `user` && project = `Project_Name`)
maybe around what you are looking for, this shows incomplete tasks, not assigned to a user withing a project.
Unfortunately when I try to do something like that I get an error:
error.4024 The filter expression is invalid: expected a sign operator, got "not" (identifier)
Reading the documentation I get the impression that what you are suggesting would work via api but I’m referring to Vikunja’ s web ui.
The not in syntax is not yet released. You need to use an unstable build or wait for the next release.

totally makes sense, I run unstable by default 
I switched to unstable to test things, but I realized that the filter @Grim73 suggested shows tasks that are not assigned to specific users, as specified in the filter, but only if the task is assigned to someone. If a task is not assigned to any user, it won’t show up.
On my setup, single user to be fair, I have this filter running, and I have no one assigned to the tasks:
I will create a test user tonight and see if I can replicate this.
you are missing the done = false and your parentheses. the syntax here (to me) says if tasks in project is not assigned to userand project isTest. To me, this means the conditions are not grouped, that's why i use para's on anything I want to make sure are grouped together. The done = false` is just reassurance that i don’t see any completed tasks
Unfortunately, it doesn’t change anything. Thanks for the help so far, though.
Based off your screenshots, it is hard to tell where you are editing your filters. If you could select your side bar filter > hit the hamburger menu > select edit and show me what you have for this filter:
I am still unable to replicate your issue on my end. The closest I have come is making a view inside the filter, which then starts to show odd results.
If you want to see a filter as a view inside a project, you could just make a view within the project filtering for unassigned. I think this may be more of what you are looking for
