Banned Terms

The system will automatically match smart variations of the text:

• Accents are removed (e.g. hellö becomes hello)
• Repeated letters are collapsed (heeelllooo becomes hello)
• Symbols are ignored (he!!o becomes hello)
• Leetspeak is matched (1337 becomes leet)

Normal Match

Just type the word or phrase normally, it will match many variations.

Example
Pattern: hello
Matches:

• hello
• hellö
• he!!o
• h.e.l.l.o

Example
Pattern: leet
Matches:

• 1337
• l33t

Exact Phrase Match (Quotes)

Use quotes to match phrases in that exact order, but still allowing for accents, symbols, and leetspeak.

Example
Pattern: "hello world"
Matches:

• hello world
• hellö world
• he!!o world
• hello woooorld
• 1337 hello world

Does not match:

Mixed Phrases

You can combine quoted phrases and other words.

Example

Regular Expressions (Advanced)

You can write a regular expression using re: at the start. This gives you full control over matching.
