If you are Experiencing issues with a Pi-hole install that has non-standard elements (e.g you are using nginx instead of lighttpd, or there is some other aspect of your install that is customised) - please use the Community Help category.

Expected Behaviour:

Regex filters taking priority over gravity blocks or let regex filters first, then gravity blocks the unfiltered regex.The issue is, sometime it can be a hurdle to check the regex filters ability to perform the task other than by other means.

-Raspiberry Pi 4B]_

Actual Behaviour:

Gravity blocks take priority over regex filters.

Debug Token:

[Replace this text with the debug token provided from running pihole -d (or running the debug script through the web interface]

RegEx filters are part of gravity, so I am not sure what you are trying to convey.

Filtering is done in a specific order, see e.g. Hierarchy of regex filters in FTL DNS.

Pi-hole Regex debugging mode may also help in assessing your RegEx filters, and online tools like regex101.com are useful in drafting regex filters.

Okay, thanks you.

Domains on domainlist (and adlists) take precedence before regex. Whitelist takes precedence before blacklist.
