disable persistent storage prompt

When browsing a website that uses persistent storage, Firefox pops up a prompt from the URL bar that says "Allow <site> to store data in persistent storage?"

How can I disable the prompt so it never pops up to ask me and automatically blocks everything?

I looked in settings and didn't find anything and didn't see anything in about:config that obviously controls this behaviour either.

I found a screenshot online of the prompt I'm talking about.

Thanks.

Try to increase this pref in about:config.

  • dom.storage.default_site_quota

Thanks for the reply cor-el,

i set both

  • dom.storage.default_quota 2147483647
  • dom.storage.default_site_quota 2147483647

which is the max allowed, but it still pops up

i then tried

  • dom.storage.enabled false

but it still pops up too

:(

You can turn it off in the View site information with Page Info

Hi TyDraniu,

thanks for your reply.

that toggles it on a per site basis, not universally.

in the page info window "use default" is checked by default, but i couldn't find anywhere to actually set the default setting.
