# Bypass Settings

Bypass Settings in the GeoIP Country Redirect App allow you to exclude specific users from being redirected and blocked. This will stop rules from triggering for that specific user accessing the store with the Bypass parameters.

**Navigation Path:**\
**GeoIP Country Redirect App → Settings → Bypass Redirection**

This can be useful in scenarios such as:

* Store Admins or developers working on the site 
* QA testing for multiple regions
* Exempting specific IPs or URLs from redirects

### 01. Bypass Redirect Rules

Disable redirection by adding the following parameter at the end of the store URL:\
`?no_rule=true`\
**Example:**\
`https://yourstore.com/?no_rule=true`

### 02. Bypass Blocker Rules

Disable blocker functionality by using the following parameter in the store URL :\
`?sgcr_no_blocker=true`\
**Example:**\
`https://yourstore.com/?sgcr_no_blocker=true`

### 03. Bypass GeoMarket Redirection

Disable GeoMarket-based redirection by adding:\
`?sgcr_no_geomarket=true`\
**Example:**\
`https://yourstore.com/?sgcr_no_geomarket=true`

Copy the required functionality URL using the copy button and paste it in the address bar to bypass the redirect rule.

*Note: Adding the following parameter to the URL will prevent redirection, or blocking during your current browser session. However, once you close and reopen the browser, the redirection will resume as per your app's settings.*
