It would be helpful to have the possibility to enter a hostname or a domain in the filter tab, and then to see if it has a hit in a filter list or the whitelist.

This would help to find out if a hostname is already filtered by an existing rule, or if an entry in the whitelist is effective at all.

How is it currently possible? I would like to enter a hostname and then see because of what exact rules AdGuard Home would have blocked this specific DNS requests or not.
I really don't know how this should be possible currently. And I am not talking about the Query Log. I think this should be a feature in the filter setting to test things out in advance when defining filter lists and custom filter rules.

Yep, now I got it.

Meanwhile, you can use dig or nslookup to test domains.

Yes that is an option.
Pi hole has a feature like that. You have a simple textbox where you can enter a domain name, and it shows you the exact rule which is matching. Super helpful if you try to figure out what filter rule is causing false-positive matches.
