You can customize the GoGuardian Admin filtering policy block page to change its appearance and give students relevant information or actions. Other block page types cannot be customized from this setting. Go to Configuration > Advanced Config > Global Config to build or edit the custom block page. The examples below are optional starting points that you can adapt for your organization.

Remove the Bypass Button

To prevent students from bypassing the block page, add the following CSS to the block page configuration:
This hides the Bypass button for all users. To keep bypass access for specific groups, see Configure Bypass Passwords. CSS code that hides the Bypass button on the custom block page

Add a Site-Access Request Form

To let students request access to the blocked site, add a link to a Google Form or similar survey on the block page. Require students to sign in with their school Google account before submitting the form so each request is tied to an identifiable user. Add the form link using standard HTML anchor syntax. Replace FORM_URL with the publicly accessible URL for your form.

Add an Image or GIF

To add a custom image or animated GIF to the block page, use the following HTML. Replace IMAGE_URL with the publicly accessible URL for your image or GIF.

Include a Personal-Device Disclaimer

If your organization filters personal devices, include a disclaimer that tells students when filtering applies. Adapt the following sample for your organization:
Use language that reflects your organization’s policies. Do not imply that the organization reviews or records student activity beyond what those policies permit. Use “filtered by GoGuardian,” not “reviewed by GoGuardian.”
