I understand Pihole 5.0 has a new Group Management feature to apply different ADlists for different clients. This is great. So that I intent to achieve both parent control and normal adblock on one pihole box.
Per Use DNS to force youtube into restricted mode - and Pi-Hole, I use a seperate pihole with customised dnsmasq configuration to force kids device to access safe youtube and safe google and together adult content adlist blocking. If I migrate this kid pihole to primary pihole that family is using, can this customised dnsmasq configuration be also moved together with client ip awareness? I am not quite familiar whether dnsmasq can support configuration only applied to certain client ip request. Please help. Thanks.
I don't believe so, but have not tested it. The dnsmasq configuration files should be applied to all queries and I believe these are independent of the Pi-hole groups because they are done at the dnsmasq level.
You can check the feature requests. If one does not exist, you can create one.
