Solved: Blocking Parts of a Site, e.g. Particular Subreddits - sp_shimizu - 07-16-2018

Hello, can anyone help me figure out how to blacklist parts of a website while whitelisting other parts? Specifically, I want to allow access to Reddit, but block several particular subreddits. Also, I want to block access to most of YouTube, but allow access several specific videos.

Hi there. In your blacklist you simply need to enter the URL of the particular subreddit such as: https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/

The rest of reddit.com would then be allowed by default. No need to enter anything into the whitelist.


Since you asked we also made a guide for this:

Does this help? Thanks

So YouTube could be blocked and then whitelist a specified YouTube video?
