wow, thanks - this looks like (i think) exactly what i need.

i'm using 'saved searches' with solr, also using views and search api to create a custom fancy search page at /explorer on my site

you can obviously now do a search and save it, which is awesome, but the 'saved searches' block is a perfect use case for this module.

right now, the saved search block will show on the landing page of the search interface before a search has even been run - which is a very confusing user experience - so i'd need a conditional rule, which is tied to the URI Query parameter

...but my question: if a typical search for a work like Ohio results in:
explorer?search_api_views_fulltext=ohio&items_per_page=20

...and i want to remove it from showing up on just the path "explorer" (without the ? or any results), what would be the logical approach? an exclusion of some kind? i was looking at your examples, but they're term specific and my use case is more like "all or nothing"

any advice is greatly appreciated.

Have you tried:

*=*

I haven't tested this myself, but logically it might work.
That said, I assume that something like:

search_api_views_fulltext=*

may also work.
