About DeBlocker Plus
From the official readme · v1.0.0Description
DeBlocker Plus detects when a visitor is browsing your site with an ad blocker enabled and displays a fully customizable notice — a popup or a full-screen overlay — inviting them to disable it. You control the title, the message, the appearance, the close and action buttons, and exactly where the notice appears.
Key features:
- Reliable ad blocker detection using a lightweight front-end script.
- Customizable popup or full-screen overlay with your own title, message and buttons.
- Granular display scopes — target by post type, individual posts, categories, tags, author archives, front page, search, 404 and more.
- Audience targeting by user role and device (desktop or mobile).
- Multilingual, with WPML and Polylang support (25+ languages).
- Insights dashboard to track detections, redirects and closes over time.
The front-end and admin assets are compiled from React/TypeScript and Sass. The complete, unminified source and build instructions are included in the plugin’s sources/ directory.
External Services
This plugin relies on the DeBlocker Plus API service (https://web.deblocker.app) to operate. The service is required to build the detection scripts served to your visitors, validate your license key, and generate the insights shown in the dashboard.
The following data is sent to the DeBlocker Plus API:
- Your site URL, admin-ajax URL and REST endpoint base.
- Your WordPress version, PHP version and plugin version.
- Your DeBlocker Plus API key, used to authenticate requests.
- Detection, redirect and close events used to generate the insights dashboard.
Data is sent when the plugin builds or rebuilds its scripts, when it validates your API key, when a detection/redirect/close event occurs, and when the insights dashboard is loaded.
By using this plugin you agree to the DeBlocker Plus service terms and privacy policy:
