Blocking websites not working (RAXE300)

I'm trying to block porn at the house with my new Netgear router.

After logging into the router, I go to Advanced tab, then Security. 

Under Block Sites, I've changed it to "Always".

I've added keywords:
po**(redacted

por******(redacted)

https://www.(urlredacted) 

 

Clicked Apply. 
Still getting through to the ol' hub. 

Under Security, Schedule, it's set to "Every Day", and "All Day".

 

Am I doing something wrong?

https:// addresses are encrypted, the http:// blocking feature does not work to block https://.
