Beginning recently. probably with release 59.0.2 (64-bit) as I explore a website almost every link shows "FireFox prevented re-direct" and requires that I click "allow" before it will show the page.

I would like to automatically allow re-direct, at least within the same site.

Helps indicate previous versions had advanced options which would handle this. Possibly under "Accessibility" But I can't find any such option in this version, or in about:config or on about:config#preferences

In Firefox 56+ the "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" setting can no longer be found in Options/Preferences.

You can modify this pref on the about:config page to enable or disable this feature

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

Thank you! Specifically for identifying where in about:config to look!
