Point the extension to your own cloud instance.

Cloud URL (Self-hosted)

By default, DNDShield's cloud features (account, sync, license activation) point to DNDShield's own servers. If you're running a self-hosted instance of the cloud app, you can point the extension at it instead.

Setting it

  1. Open the DNDShield popup's license panel.
  2. Expand Advanced.
  3. Enter your instance's URL in the Cloud URL field.

This is an advanced option — most users should leave it at the default. Core ad and tracker blocking works identically either way; only account, sync, and license activation talk to the cloud URL.
