Lock Google SafeSearch for devices & networks

Hi,

I'm considering using OpenDNS to block adult content on my home network.

I want to configure google safe search to always be enabled on my network.

I came across the following instructions and was wondering if this is something that can be configured in OpenDNS?
To force SafeSearch for your network, you’ll need to update your DNS configuration. Set the DNS entry for www.google.com (and any other Google country domains your users may use) to be a CNAME for forcesafesearch.google.com

Thanks for your time.

This is something you must configure on your own DNS server. It is not supported by OpenDNS.
