General Settings

Algorithm

You can select one of the available algorithms that will affect the way of plugin operation. Please read more about them and choose the one that suits you best.

  • Inline – This algorithm is selected by default since it has been improved since version 3.1.0. This way involves adding inline scripts to the page. It works well for everyone, but only for now. There is a possibility that over time it may also be blocked by other extensions.
  • Random Folder – It creates a plugin folder with the necessary files. When this setting is selected, the Lifetime option appears that allows specifying the lifetime of the folder created by the plugin. The main condition is that this folder must be writable. You can make sure that everything is configured correctly in the plugin settings DeBlocker>Status. If the folder is not writable, please disable all third-party plugins for security.
  • Script Proxy – this method involves interacting with site scripts that can slow down the site. Besides, use caching can negatively affect the operation of the plugin.
