I don't understand this, could you please elaborate?

I'm very familiar with DNS, but less so with pihole.

Looking at other docs I see: pihole -g: "This will for a download of any updates from the third-party block lists that we source. By default, this command runs once a week via cron, so there’s no need to run it manually unless you want to get some updated lists or you run into a problem with the list."

Does this mean it is refreshing/updating the lists which are contained within the Adlist group management section of PiHole? If so then how does that help with this issue?

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding its use and thank you for your time and efforts on this project.

@ashleycawley if you are using the gravity list not the script you can update the using pihole -g
