Placeholder Page (Docker)

You need to append /admin when navigating via IP address.

This is mentioned in the release notes right at the top.

However also note that I pushed a new docker container (2022.1.1) with the following:

Lighttpd Config

Automatic redirection to /admin will only happen if you browse via http://pi.hole. If you wish to browse via http://[IP Address], then you will need to ensure that you add /admin manually. In the past, a splash screen has been shown with a link to /admin, however this is now removed along with the now-defunct blockpage.

If you really want any other hostname to redirect automatically to admin, simply create a file named /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/15-pihole-custom-admin-redirect.conf (or whatever you want to call it) with the contents similar to:

$HTTP["url"] == "/" {
    $HTTP["host"] == "my.custom.domain" {
         url.redirect = ("" => "/admin/")
    }
}
