Introduction

Filters are a way to apply automated action on a feed's new article. Filters applied on a feed

In the above example, all article which title contains Apple, apple, iPhone or iPad will be marked as read.

How does it work

Filters are made of four attributes:

  • their "pattern" (ie a string or a regex) that will have to match to trigger the filter. String pattern are case insensitive but regex are.
  • their "trigger type", you can choose to trigger your filter by checking that
    • the title exactly matches the pattern
    • the title contains the pattern
    • one of the tags of the article is exactly the pattern
    • one of the tags contains the pattern
    • the title matches the regex defined by the pattern
  • you can choose to trigger the filter on a match of the pattern but also on a mismatch. This way you'll be able to invert the filter. For this choose "no match" instead of match.
  • their "action" which will be taken on a match (or on a mismatch if you selected "no match"):
    • mark the article as liked
    • mark the article as read (it won't appear in your feed but it will be their)
    • skip the article: it won't be added to the database and will be ignored entirely

How to edit

As you can see on the screenshot above, you can add a new filters to your feed by clicking on the + sign. A new line will appear and you'll be able to remove it with the - sign.
