Timed Filters

With Timed Filters you can block access to specific websites, or the entire Internet on a custom schedule.

How to setup a timed filter for a single website:

1. Log into your MyFilter Dashboard
2. Go to Web Filter > Timed Filters
3. Set your timezone.
4. Enter the website to block.
   • Just enter the last portion of the website. Example, to block access to http://www.facebook.com, just enter ‘facebook.com’.
5. Set a daily or weekly schedule.
6. Add.
7. Save Filters.

Each timed filter corresponds to one time range and during that time range, the site in question will be blocked.

You can add multiple rules for a given site, so long as the ranges do not overlap.

Weekly Example: You create a Schedule Repeats Weekly rule to block facebook.com from 9 AM to 11 AM. This means that from Monday at 9am through Friday at 11 am facebook.com will be blocked.

Daily Example: You create a Schedule Repeats Daily rule to block facebook.com. This means that from 9 AM to 11 AM each day facebook.com be blocked.
