Introduction #
This document provides an overview of the different methods of installing the HTTPS certificate that eBlocker generates. By installing the eBlocker HTTPS certificate on your device you can enable advanced blocking protection such as pattern blocking or device cloaking. As mentioned in the ‘Start Here’ guide, in order to perform the Advanced Setup you need to install the eBlocker HTTPS certificate on every device.
Certificate Storage Guides #
Below we have written multiple guides to help you correctly store the eBlocker HTTPS certificate on your device.
We recommend that you first store the eBlocker HTTPS certificate in the operating system, since most browsers and programs expect the eBlocker HTTPS certificate there. Some apps, such as the Firefox browser, have their own certificate store. Make sure to also add the certificate to those apps individually.
The following articles will guide you on how to correctly store the eBlocker certificate on each operating system:
