Hi guys! I have some PCs with Firefox 44.0.2 installed. Some of them, when we access a website that use geolocation, Firefox shows us a warning to share the location but it does not show the options "Always Share Location" and "Never Share Location", firefox shows just the "Not now" option.

I'm not sure why different permission prompts have different options, but if there is a site where you want a persistent Allow or Block, you can set that using the Permissions panel of the Page Info dialog.

You can call that up using any of these:

  • right-click a blank area of the page and choose View Page Info > Permissions
  • (menu bar) Tools menu > Page Info > Permissions
  • click the padlock or globe icon to the left of the site address, then the ">" icon, then More Information > Permissions

Near the top, you'll find "Access Your Location" and you can uncheck the "Use default" box and select the permission you prefer.
