A custom blocking map can be used to customize Auto Blocker's behavior by recategorizing, blocking, or unblocking all scripts from a specific domain.
To recategorize, block, or unblock a single instance of a script, use manual blocking instead.
Recategorizing cookies in your dashboard cookie report does not impact Auto Blocker behavior. The dashboard categorization only affects where cookies appear in your cookie policy and cookie preference center. A custom blocking map must be defined before you load Termly’s embed script. Use the code below and customize for your site.
Add the domains you are recategorizing in the format “example.com” and use one of the following five cookie categories: essential, performance, analytics, advertising, or social_networking. Keep this spelling and formatting to ensure the scripts are categorized correctly.
Example custom blocking map code:
<!-- Termly custom blocking map -->
<script data-termly-config>
window.TERMLY_CUSTOM_BLOCKING_MAP = {
"example.com": "analytics",
"xyz.com": "social_networking",
}
</script>To ensure your custom blocking map overrides Auto Blocker defaults, load it before your Termly embed script.
If your custom blocking map doesn't appear to be working correctly, make sure you are using "straight quotes" and not “smart quotes“ in the script.
Custom blocking map used with Termly embed script:
<!-- Termly custom blocking map -->
<script data-termly-config>
window.TERMLY_CUSTOM_BLOCKING_MAP = {
"example.com": "analytics",
"xyz.com": "social_networking",
}
</script>
<!-- Termly embed script -->
<script
type="text/javascript"
src="https://app.termly.io/embed.min.js"
data-auto-block="on"
data-website-uuid="123-abc"
></script>Subdomain categorization
You can recategorize subdomains separately from the parent domain with a custom blocking map. Domains with higher specificity will take precedence over the general domain categorization. In the example below, "subdomain.example.com" categorization will take precedence over "example.com" categorization.
<!-- Termly custom blocking map -->
<script data-termly-config>
window.TERMLY_CUSTOM_BLOCKING_MAP = {
"example.com": "analytics",
"subdomain.example.com": "performance",
}
