Pihole does not stay disabled after API call to api.php

[Mcat12]

Does your call look like the one here, but with an integer assigned to the disable parameter?

Is there an API command to disable ad blocking?

There is no way to do it without authentication. You will need to have this as your bookmark: http://pi.hole/admin/api.php?disable&auth=PWHASH Where PWHASH is the value of WEBPASSWORD in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf You can also replace disable with enable to enable Pi-hole.
