Short answers for building, importing, syncing, and fixing your loot filters.
START
Accounts, first filters, and the story behind Filterino.
Filterino helps Path of Exile players create, edit, and manage item filters. Use the visual editor, or switch to the text editor for syntax highlighting and code completion.
You can import an existing filter, preview changes, use custom sound packs, and send a finished filter to your Path of Exile account.
You can browse Community Filters without an account. To build and save your own filter:
.filter file.Filterino uses Path of Exile's official OAuth sign-in. It requests profile and item-filter access so it can identify your account and read or update your filters.
Your Path of Exile password is never shared with Filterino.
I managed my own filters with a Python script for years. It worked, but it was not a pleasant way to edit or maintain them.
Filterino is the browser tool I wanted: visual when that is useful, and text-first when typing is faster.
Share it in the Filterino Discord. Suggestions are easier to discuss there, especially when you include the problem you want to solve.
BUILD
Editors, imports, derived filters, and sending a filter to Path of Exile.
A base filter is the source you maintain. A derived filter starts from that base and adjusts it for a build, league, or playstyle.
When the base changes, its derived filters can receive those updates while keeping their own changes. This lets you maintain shared rules once instead of copying the same edits into every filter.
The visual editor organizes a filter into the same parts used by Path of Exile:
Text mode edits the raw filter with syntax highlighting and code completion. You can move between both modes as you work.
Open Import Filter, then drop a .filter file onto the page or choose one from your device. You can also import filters owned by the Path of Exile account you connected.
Filters you only follow cannot be imported directly from your account.
Push to GGG creates or updates the filter on your Path of Exile account. After you select that filter in-game, the same account filter is available on your devices.
Filter errors must be fixed before GGG can accept the update. You can always download the .filter file and install it manually instead.
SYSTEM
Filter files, browser support, and the data needed to run your library.
Filterino uses Path of Exile's standard plain-text .filter format. Files downloaded from Filterino work in the game and can be opened by other tools that support the same format.
Filterino is built for current desktop and mobile browsers. If a feature behaves differently in your browser, report the browser, device, and action that caused the problem on Discord.
Filterino stores the account details needed for sign-in, the OAuth access needed for Path of Exile syncing, and the filters or sound packs you save.
Your data is used to run your library and is not sold.
FIX
Practical checks for filters, syncing, performance, and bug reports.
.filter file is in Path of Exile's item-filter folder.If it still fails, include the game's error message when you ask for help on Discord.
.filter file if you need a manual fallback.For a very large filter, try text mode and close other browser tabs doing heavy work. Refresh the page if performance changed during a long editing session.
If one filter is consistently slow, report its approximate size and the action that triggers the slowdown.
Post it in the Discord bug-reporting channel.
Include what you were doing, what you expected, what happened instead, and any error message or screenshot. Those details make the problem much easier to reproduce.
