AesirX Features: Domain Path Blocking

Q: 1. How does AesirX use Domain Path Blocking to stop scripts from running before a visitor chooses their settings?

AesirX Domain Path Blocking lets you block tracking before it loads by matching scripts to a domain or path you specify. If the script URL fits the rule, it is prevented from executing in the browser until the user consents to that category. This gives you practical domain-level script blocking.

Q: 2. Can I use Domain Path Blocking to control embeds or tools that do not come from a WordPress plugin?

Yes. AesirX Domain Path Blocking is ideal when you need to block tracking by domain path for technologies loaded through themes, CDNs, hard-coded HTML, or direct script tags. It allows you to restrict third-party domains pre-consent even when no plugin is involved.

Q: 3. Does Domain Path Blocking stop all network requests to third-party services?

It stops execution, not every network call. Domain Path Blocking can block domain calls before execution, but some initial requests may still occur. This provides safer domain-based tracking control under a consent-first model while avoiding claims about full GDPR or ePD compliance.

Q: 4. How does Domain Path Blocking improve privacy workflows in WordPress specifically?

On WordPress, Domain Path Blocking helps you control plugin-free tracking paths that appear outside plugin architecture. It gives you consistent path-based script restriction across themes, page builders, and custom code so tracking does not run until consent is chosen.

Q: 5. Can Domain Path Blocking help reduce exposure to unwanted data flows?

Yes. When rules are configured, Domain Path Blocking can prevent data calls to third-party domains by stopping the scripts that attempt to run. It does not promise compliance outcomes, but it strengthens your ability to enforce domain restrictions under GDPR/ePD by controlling when scripts can activate.

Why Domain Path Blocking Matters

Most websites load scripts from many different sources, and not all of them come from plugins you can manage directly. Some arrive through themes, hard-coded embeds, CDNs, or external tools that activate the moment a page loads. These silent calls can trigger tracking, analytics, or advertising scripts before a visitor has a chance to make a consent choice. For site owners, this creates risk and makes it hard to prove that third-party technologies are handled responsibly.

Domain Path Blocking on AesirX CMP for WordPress solves that gap by letting you target and control scripts based on the domain or path they originate from. If a script matches your rules, it is prevented from executing in the browser until the user has consented to its category. This supports the GDPR’s consent requirements and helps reduce privacy exposure where plugin-based blocking is not enough.

For businesses, it improves operational consistency, cuts configuration time, and delivers predictable behavior across large sites where mixed script sources are common. It gives teams a clear, dependable way to govern third-party behavior.

How it works

Block scripts from specific domains or paths until visitors choose their consent settings.

Add domain rule

Map to category

Block until consent

You set a domain or path rule for any script. Domain Path Blocking checks each script request and prevents matching scripts from executing in the browser until the user consents to that category.

This gives you granular control over third-party technologies that are not tied to plugins. Initial network calls may still occur, but script execution is stopped until the visitor provides valid consent.
