How do I exclude results with the .php file extension in Google search?

Question

I spend a lot of time searching for resources about PHP. As the search narrows and the results get fewer, I begin to get a lot of noise from pages unrelated to my research, simply appearing there because they end with ".php".

If I do

-".php"

it works, but also hides the pages that are relevant but end in .php

How do I search Google and ignore as relevant to my search, but not remove those entries containing ".php" from the results?

Answer 1

intext:php or allintext: your php query may work.
