How do I exclude 6 names from my dashboards? They come up in all my multiselects and several panels

Hi @emkenick ,

could you share your search in the multiselect?

Ciao.

Are you using a search to populate the multiselect? If so you should adjust this search to exclude the names you do not want to appear in the list, this should stop users then selecting them. 

If you have an "All / *" option in your select as a manual entry then you should also exclude these users in the SPL Search that populates your panels too so that when the All / * option is selected that these are still excluded.

Please let me know how you get on and consider upvoting/karma this answer if it has helped.
Regards

Will
