Description: When clicking on a blocked domain in a web browser redirect back to pi-hole to login and whitelist.
Many times I will be browsing the Internet and there are certain legitimate sites I would like to get to which are being blocked by pi-hole. I could just log into pi-hole and add to whitelist, but it would be nice if pi-hole could help with that.
I prototyped some code to support this:
-
I added to list.php the following modification to accept get requests:
<!-- Domain Input --> <div class="form-group input-group"> <!-- PGMOD --> <input id="domain" type="text" class="form-control" value="<?php echo $_GET['domain']?>" placeholder="Add a domain (example.com or sub.example.com)"> <!-- PGMOD --> -
I am using apache and added this to the configuration within virtual host section
RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^pi-hole.mydomain.com RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://pi-hole.mydomain.com/admin/list.php?l=white&domain%{HTTP_HOST} [L,R=301]
This used to work when pi-hole returned the pi-hole server IP for the blocked domains. But now it is returning 0.0.0.0 instead.
So this is a feature request to officially support automatic redirect blocked domain to pi-hole to allow the end user to decide to whitelist or not. Maybe it could even give some more detailed info on the blocked domain.
