EFW Community 3.0 web filtering on home network for kids

[Guest]

Hello all, I am a new EFW user and am really enjoying this distro. I have efw 3 running on a spare PC, doing https filtering correctly, but it is failing to filter images from search engines. Can anyone please help me with the following:

1. Where can I add regexp to enforce safe search for google, youtube, bing, etc ... ? (if this is built in and I ma just overlooking the feature please tell me)
2. Why am I unable to download URL filter lists, when clicking "Force download," on the HTTP Proxy: Web URL Filter page --> always says "Last updated: unknown."

I really would appreciate any help, as we home school our 4 kids and they use the internet a lot to do projects (and have fun/goof off) and I do not want to blanket block useful resources like these. Thanks in advance.

Hello everybody,
On EFW 3.0.5 I'm trying to upgrade the proxy HTTP URL filter so I force the download but I always get "URL Filter Last updated: unknown"
The proxy is enabled on green i/f in transparent mode.
I took a look on efw support and I found some posts regarding this issue but I don't be able to find a solution.
Please can anyone help me?
Best regards.
Dario
