Question

I was wondering if there was a way in the loop to stop posts been displayed if the title of the post contains a specific keyword?

Thanks

Instead of using the_title(), use get_the_title(). The difference is that the_title() outputs the title directly, while get_the_title() returns it. Hence, you can just do a simple condition:

if(strpos(get_the_title(), 'Keyword') === false) {
    // Title does not contain Keyword
}
