pi-hole/PADD v3.0.0

PADD 3.0.0 (Huntingdon)

on GitHub

New

• "Mega" mode: A new, larger version of PADD!
  • Includes everything from "regular" mode with even more information:
    • Number of clients
    • The most recently blocked ad domain, top ad domain, and top served domain and client displayed always
    • Information about FTL and the DNS cache (from #38)
    • More network information is always displayed
  • (If you are using a PiTFT+ and want to try mega mode, change your font to the Terminus 6x12 by running sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup)
• Improved DNS information
  • PADD will detect if your DNS is 127.0.0.1#5053 which is used for Cloudflared
  • PADD will detect if your router/gateway is your upstream DNS and tell you.
• Connectivity check during the pre-launch
  • PADD will check to see if it's online prior to starting, which should resolve any issues with PADD checking for updates before Pi-hole's up and running

Tweaks

• Removed the US locale requirement (fixes #26, #39)

Fixes

• PADD's version checking code has been completely re-written (fixes #25, #32)
  • PADD will now gracefully handle issues with Pi-hole's version checker returning "ERROR" (which can indicate an error with it talking to GitHub)
  • Any time this occurs, PADD will assume that is up-to-date and display the version number in amber (Don't worry -- PADD will check for updates the next day)
• Fixed my missing logo (#45)
