# v3 Migration Guide
## Consumer Settings Changes
The v3 consumer command uses a [different library](https://watchfiles.helpmanual.io/) to unify
the watching for new files in the consume directory. For the user, this removes several configuration options related to delays and retries
and replaces with a single unified setting. It also adjusts how the consumer ignore filtering happens, replaced `fnmatch` with `regex` and
separating the directory ignore from the file ignore.
### Summary
| Old Setting | New Setting | Notes |
| ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `CONSUMER_POLLING` | [`CONSUMER_POLLING_INTERVAL`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_POLLING_INTERVAL) | Renamed for clarity |
| `CONSUMER_INOTIFY_DELAY` | [`CONSUMER_STABILITY_DELAY`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_STABILITY_DELAY) | Unified for all modes |
| `CONSUMER_POLLING_DELAY` | _Removed_ | Use `CONSUMER_STABILITY_DELAY` |
| `CONSUMER_POLLING_RETRY_COUNT` | _Removed_ | Automatic with stability tracking |
| `CONSUMER_IGNORE_PATTERNS` | [`CONSUMER_IGNORE_PATTERNS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_IGNORE_PATTERNS) | **Now regex, not fnmatch**; user patterns are added to (not replacing) default ones |
| _New_ | [`CONSUMER_IGNORE_DIRS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_IGNORE_DIRS) | Additional directories to ignore; user entries are added to (not replacing) defaults |
