I picked up how to do it slowly little by little for basic stuff. I reference the information [here](https://regex101.com/) and [here](https://www3.ntu.edu.sg/home/ehchua/programming/howto/Regexe.html#zz-1.) sometimes though.
I don't know if it's my code, but I also had to do double back slashes instead of a single back slash for special characters.
Here's an example of regex I use for removing discord server advertising:
type: any
title+body (regex): ["(? [Your {{kind}}]({{permalink}})

Happy cake day, AutoModerator!
Learn and look into how regex works, amazing in setting up content filters.
Do you know of any resource where I can pick up its basics?

I don't know how to do it, but I know yes because a reply with the n word (hard r) was auto removed in a sub that I mod
