<h3>Available Filters</h3>
<h4>srr_item_properties</h4>
<p>This filter allows you to filter individual item’s properties (author, title, description), before they get passed to the print function.<br />
To see which properties are passed to the filter function, simply var_dump() the contents of $item_properties.<br />
To use it, you could use code similar to this:</p>
<pre><code>`php
</code></pre>
<p>add_filter(‘srr_item_properties’, function ($item_properties) {<br />
    $item_properties[‘title’] = strtolower($item_properties[‘title’]);<br />
    return $item_properties;<br />
}, 10, 1);<br />
    `</p>
