Ad blockers can interfere with the Full traffic view there are some URLs that are hidden from view, that is, you can see the category they belong to, but not the actual URL:
You've run the Full traffic for <user> report for Safeguarding with web furniture showing, and have noticed that some URLs are not displaying but their category is shown. See our help topic, Running the safeguarding full report for user breaches.
This has been tracked down to some in-browser ad blockers, such as AdBlock and uBlock Origin, adding additional styling to those "advert-type" URLs that the Smoothwall has marked as web furniture, such as, doubleclick.net and awin.com.
You can either:
- Change the Full traffic for <user> view to hide web furniture.
- Disable your ad blocker when accessing the Smoothwall administration user interface
- This is recommended as the ad blocker may interfere with other Smoothwall reports
