Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:49 am

Adding a filter in WordPress is fairly easy. The first thing you’ll need to do is go to your WordPress admin area and click on the “Appearance” tab.

From here, you’ll want to click on the “Filters” link.

Next, you’ll want to click on the “Add New” button. In the “Name” field, you’ll want to type in a name for your new filter. In the “Condition” field, you’ll want to type in a condition that your filter will will be based on.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with code or filters in WordPress, then do not attempt to add a filter to your site. If you do not know what you are doing, you can break your site.

In the “Action” field, you’ll want to type in the action that your filter will take. Finally, in the “Plugin” field, you’ll want to type in the name of the plugin from which your filter will be sourced.

After you’ve filled out all of the fields, click on the “Save” button. Now, you’ll need to activate your new filter. To do this, you’ll need to go to your WordPress admin area and click on the “Settings” tab. Next, you’ll want to click on the “Activate” button next to your new filter.

Now, your new filter will be active and you’ll be able to use it to enhance your WordPress blog.
