Note: Allowed Sites always take priority over Content Filters and Blocked Sites.

Domain Examples

• example.com — Affects the entire domain

• subdomain.example.com — Affects only that subdomain

• org — Affects all .org domains

Common Mistakes

• www.example.com

  • Enter example.com instead. "www." only blocks that subdomain.

• https://example.com

  • Enter example.com instead. URLs aren't accepted — use FQDNs.

• example.com/page

  • Enter example.com instead. Pages are removed automatically.

• *.org

  • Enter org instead. Just enter the TLD name.
