I noticed my screenshot did not come through but it is just the standard block site UI where you choose when you want it blocked, enter the domain or keywords then hit apply.

 

I do all this and when I try accessing that website i can still hit it.

 

Thanks

This consumer class feature is stuck in the pre-https times - unless I'm very wrong, this feature is (honeslty) useless as of writing today.

@schumaku : Thanks for this.  Any ideas as to what I can do without having to pay for a service to support this.  I am fairly novice when it comes to this tech stuff.

 

Just want to be able to easily turn on and off access to websites throughout the day on my network or even better a specific computer on my network.

 

Thanks
