Hide staff activity in Filtering Reports and Alerts

Updated

Depending on your school’s configuration, you may see staff activity showing in Filtering Reports and Alerts. You can exclude staff from policies with alerts, but they will no longer be blocked from accessing the content specified in those policies.

  Note

If you still want staff to be blocked but not monitored, create a new Block policy for staff without alerts.

Before you begin

  1. You must have permission to manage Filtering.
  2. Ensure you have a staff group in your School Directory or locally in Linewize Filter.
  3. Confirm which Block policies you need to exclude staff from.

Exclude staff from Filtering Policies

  1. Go to Filtering > Content Filtering.
  2. Find the Block Policy you need to exclude staff from and select the edit (pencil) icon. The Edit Policy window will appear.
  3. In the Criteria setting, select Exclude Group from the dropdown menu. The Exclude Group setting will appear.
  4. In the Exclude Group setting, enter the staff group name and select it from the list.
  5. Select Save Policy.
  6. (Optional) Create a new Block policy to block staff from accessing the specific content.

  Tip

Save time by duplicating policies that use the same content filtering settings.
