Filters are a really effective way to narrow the focus and find just the right content!

Filter functionality based on Twitter Advanced Search
no need to add operators AND, OR, - We take care of that for you
Filtering available for your @hometimeline, single @users, @userlists, Me & the people I follow, #tags, RSS feeds and G+ user
There are no filters available for Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and G+ key word content streams ( in case you are looking for them )

This exact phrase: we only accept one phrase
All other fields: Enter your key words and we will add the operator value on our end ( AND, OR..) You don't need to do a thing
You key words will automatically be displayed as you type them in
You can hide your key words (and minimize your filter box) once you have finished

Note: When you add a filter and specify which tweets should taken into account for your newspaper, please consider that we will only search for the content pertaining to that tweet and we will discard the rest. Increasing the amount words to filter against / for can significantly reduce the amount of content on your Paper.li. We recommand a maximum of 200 letters.
