Enabling cookies in Mozilla Firefox:

 

After opening the browser, locate the small icon with three horizontal lines in the upper right hand corner of the browser window.

After clicking on the icon, a drop down menu will appear.

Find and click on ‘Options’ (Apple Macintosh users click ‘Settings.’). This will open the browser options (settings) in a new tab.

Find and click on ‘Privacy and Security’.

If Standard is selected, (this is the default setting), then except for trackers, all cookies are enabled.

If ‘Strict’ is selected, then either choose ‘Standard’ or switch to ‘Custom’ to enable cookies in the browser.

If ‘Custom’ is selected, either uncheck ‘Cookies’ (this will allow all cookies) or select the setting to only block Cross-site and social media trackers.

After a selection has been made, click ‘Reload All Tabs’ to apply changes.

Alternately, individual site permissions can be managed to allow cookies from specific sites only. To accomplish this, scroll down to ‘Cookies and Site Data’ and click on ‘Manage Permissions’. Type the exact address of the site you’d like to manage permissions for, then click ‘Save Changes’.
