I am a Mac user. I have been using FireFox (FF) as my go to browser for a number of years.

I have a WordPress blog. For the last year, I have been having problems with the display of the Facebook, Twitter and YouTube icons through the FF browser. They are not visible when I post as "Admin." However, these icons show up when I use Safari. So, in order to post on my Facebook page, I now have to use Safari. I can use FireFox to write the posts, but because the icons aren't visible, I can't directly get to my Facebook page and have to use Safari to post.

Any idea why the icons don't show up when using FF? (I tried to attach two screenshots to show the FF and Safari pages, but they exceed the file size and won't upload.) 

Any help addressing this issue, will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Sincerely, F. Brooks

Have you checked you don’t have FF extensions that block this? Some FF extensions block access to things like this, it could be something else but that’s my personal guess.

Dear Z, Thank you for your response. You are absolutely correct. I checked the FF extensions in settings that I enabled. These are ad block and FaceBook ad block. I disabled these and the icons returned on my blog page.

Do you have any recommendations about how to block these extensions without enabling them on FF? If there's no solution, I will continue to load my posts using Safari.

Greatly appreciate your assistance.
