Filters can be added to control what feeds get sent to Discord via the command `filters`. There are five categories for which filters can be applied to: title, description, summary, author and tag.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Categories are set by the feed author, and not by you. Setting a filter to a category that does not exist or is not identified by the `test` command will cause all articles of the feed to fail the filter.
{% endhint %}

There are two types of filters: regular or regex. If regex filters are defined, regular filters will be ignored.

#### Filters on Other Article/XML Properties

You can apply filters to non-standard raw properties. Use the `dump` command, find the relevant name, and use `raw:<name>` as the filter category (replacing `<name>` with the name in the dump output).
