# Using the ConsoleFilters plugin

This example illustrates how to use and configure the ConsoleFilters plugin for Console. The debug versions of YUI module files are used, so standard YUI debugging messages are broadcast to the Console.

Use the checkboxes in the Console footer to control which messages are displayed or hidden. Click the "Log a message" button to call `Y.log` using a custom category and source.

Note how new filter checkboxes are added when a new category or source are received by the Console, for example when clicking on the "Log a message" button.
