I'm pretty sure both Negative Keyword Conflicts Scripts you provide as solutions:


... handle bmm keywords incorrectly: the scripts simply remove the + sign and after that handle the keyword as if it were a broad match keyword. Instead, the individual words of the bmm keyword should be treated separately as exact keywords.


Example:

-shoes (negative keyword)

does not block

red shoes (broad)

but it is blocking

+red +shoes (bmn)

The scripts do not report this conflict because +red +shoes is treated exactly like red shoes.

Would you mind looking into it?

Matthias

Is there any update on this? Has the script been adjusted?

Hi Finn,

This feature has not yet been added to the script. I'll update this thread when it does.
