When I go to the same website each day, I have to click allow flash and remember this decision.

What should I do to make it always allow without having to click things on the same website?

Hello helpneeded,

Would you do this please :

When you're on that site, click on the 'i' in a circle, next to the padlock at the left side of the address bar.

Then click on the little black arrow on the dropdown and then on "More Information", which will take you to "Page Info".

Click on the 'Permissions" tab and scroll down to "Run Adobe Flash". Uncheck "Use Default" and check "Allow".

Then close and restart Firefox.


In addition :

It might also help to set Shockwave Flash to "Always Activate" in 3-bar menu (or Tools) => Add-ons => Plugins.
