 * This branch has been merged into the master, so is now part of the plugin. Do
   you have any specific issues with blocking images at the moment?

 * Hi Rogier.
 * Thank you for the quick feedback.
    Yes indeed I have this ratings widget right
   here. It loads a png from an external source and i would like to have that blocket.
 * I had been able to to add custom scripts to the script center before. That all
   worked splendidly. However with the images I am adraid I missed something.

 * Hi [@dobicki](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dobicki/),
 * You can upload the attached code as a PHP file to the folder `/wp-content/mu-
   plugins/`, which will block the image (the one seen on the URL you attached) 
   prior to consent.
 * You can see an example in action on [this URL](https://majezu.us.instawp.xyz/index.php/2022/02/24/image-blocked/).
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       defined( 'ABSPATH' ) or die( "you do not have acces to this page!" );
   
       /**
       * Block the image
       *
       * @param $tags
       *
       * @return array
       */
   
       function cmplz_block_image_sources( $tags ) {
       	$tags[] = 'provenexpert.com';
   
       	return $tags;
       }
       add_filter( 'cmplz_image_tags', 'cmplz_block_image_sources' );
       ```
   
 * Hope it helps!
    Kind regards, Jarno

 * hm.
    Sadly it is still not working. Checkt the mu-plugins Path, checked your 
   code, cleared all the page cache.
 * Am I forgetting something?
 * _
 * Update:
    Weirdly enough now it works. I generated a new testpage, pasted the 
   widget code again, deleted and reuploaded the php file to the mu-plugins folder
   and now it does work. [https://pflegeberatung-sattelberger.de/test/](https://pflegeberatung-sattelberger.de/test/)
 * Must have been a cache problem after all.
 * Anyway many thanks for your help.
 * Kind regards
