On the website Zate.tv, when I try to add the plugin, I get a message that Firefox didn´t allow it, but it doesn´t give me the option to allow it. I have changed the security parameters, adding exceptions and allowing Pop Up, but still it doesn´t work

It´s on the website Zate.tv The plugin I think, is Zate.tv 19.0

When I try to install it, I get a message

"Firefox prevented this site from asking you to install software on your computer"

I have tried by allowing pop ups, changing the security parameters, and adding an exception to this website, but nothing seems to work. In teh past, the message had a window with the option to install the software if trusted, but it is not appearing now.

Thanks

The site is Spanish, so someone else will have to check. I've called the big guys to help you. Good luck.

There should be an allow button at the right end of the this notification bar or in the doorhanger that opens if you click the icon on the location/address bar.

It shouldn't be necessary to specially allow web pages to install software (extensions). You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:

  • click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
  • click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected

Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab.

Note that Firefox may refuse to install unsigned extensions.

The "allow" button doesn´t appear at all. Did the procedure, an selected "allow" on the permissions tab. Still not working. This is an unverified website. Any chance that is the problem? And if it is, is there any way to jump this? Thanks

That is likely because this is in an iframe. Try to right-click this area and select "This Frame > Open Frame in a New Tab". That gives me the Allow button.

I did. In the new tab it appears the same legend that Firefox doesn´t allow this webpage from asking permition, along with a blank page
