Add URL


To add an URL, follow these steps:

1.  Access SureLock Settings.

2.  On Main Menu screen, tap Allowed Websites.

3.  On Allowed Websites screen, tap Add URL to launch Website Information prompt.

     Website Information prompt has following customization options:

  • Type - URL Type (http/https/file)
  • URL - Enter the URL
  • Display Name - Enter the Display Name
  • Icon - Icon image for the website. Select the Icon as Favicon/ Default.
  • Allow sub-domains - Select this option if the user wants to allow all the sub-domains of the allowed URL. For example: If www.google.com is selected as the allowed URL, then allowing the sub-domains will provide access to all sites hosted under *.google.com such as maps.google.com, mail.google.com and so on. 

Note: Allow sub-domains do not allow sites with same domain name but with different extensions such as google.co.in or google.co.uk. They will have to be allowed as a separate URL.

  • Allow Only This Page – Select this option if the user wants to allow any specific webpage.

 Note: This option can be selected only when Allow sub-domains option is disabled.

  • Set as Starting URL - The selected URL will be set as Homepage and will automatically load on the launch of the SureLock.
  • Hide URL -  If Hide URL option is selected, the allowed URL will be hidden from the homepage but will not be blocked. This option becomes quite useful in case if admins don’t want to directly launch the website but should be accessible when launched by other allowed sites.
  • Error Redirection - Select this option to redirect any network error to this page. It allows you to display a custom error page if any site is down due to the network problem.  

Note: Only one site can be set as Error Redirection page at a time.

4.  Tap Save to complete.

 The allowed URL will get displayed on the SureLock Home Screen.
