Hi, I'm trying to whitelist links using regex via !filters links command like the documentation says here https://docs.nightbot.tv/spam-protection/links . However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to work, and the documentation doesn't provide an example or a command for doing so, only stating that it's simply possible. 
​
I am aware that you can add whitelist via nightbot's control panel, but I am asking how to do it via command like the documentation states you can.
​
I tried:
​
!filters links ~/regex/i
!filters links enable ~/regex/i
!filters links whitelist ~/regex/i
!filters links whitelist add ~/regex/i
​
!filters links
~/regex/i
​
!filters links enable
~/regex/i
​
!filters links whitelist
~/regex/i
​
!filters links whitelist add
~/regex/i

Yes, filters are enabled and so are blacklists.

It is unfortunately not possible to edit the blacklist or whitelist from chat at this time. There's not really a good way for allow people to add/remove from these lists, so we opted to make it UI/API only when we built it.

Ah ok, I misunderstood the documentation. I thought whitelist was editable via command. Thanks for the replies everyone.
