*About operator usage: when you create filter by using several operators, you need to know that cPanel will process “and” operator first before”or” operator.  Filter process will be work as follows:

  • A or B and C will be processed as A or (B and C).
  • A and B or C will be processed as (A and B) or C.

If you want to create filter such as (A or B) and (C or D) you should create it as follow:

  • (A and C) or (A and D) or (B and C) or (B and D)
