Stop Blocking 3rd-Party Cookies

I need to edit a website in WebFlow. But when I log into the admin for the site, I get the attached dialog saying I need to make sure that Firefox accepts third-party cookies. I turned off the Cookies setting in Privacy-Security, but that didn't help. How do I turn off blocking third-party cookies?

Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?


Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately I couldn't get any changes to make a difference. I solved the problem by using Edge browser (even Safari worked).

Edge has a specific setting for turning on/off blocking third-party cookies, so turning it off was one click, in one place. Firefox is still my first choice, but this was really a waste of time and effort.

Thank you very much...I hope this will turn off third-party cookies blocking. If not, as I mentioned earlier, for the limited number of times I need it turned off, I can just use Edge.

Your help is much appreciated.
