Certain sites, (e.g; people.com,) do not respond when clicking a prompt to accept cookies. I cannot find a reason for this behaviour.

What are clicking on Accept or Reject or Show, does anything happen when you hover on each?

Exactly. Nothing at all happens.

Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox

Thanks, I tried troubleshoot mode, but it doesn't shed any light on this issue.

Could you provide the actual URL you are using, not the domain name i.e. a copy of what is in the address bar? Thanks

https://people.com/ https://www.southernliving.com/

Clicking on Accept, Reject or Show gives no response at all.

Hmh that's weird. If troubleshoot mode didn't change anything, it can't be e.g. addon interfering.

Does anything change if you try the same from a new Private Window?

I tried the new Private Window. Same behaviour, no change.

Hi and yes both those sites use the same format. I do get a 'hand' icon so the browser knows it's a link, but I do not allow cookies on my desktop so easily. So will allow cookies for one of them and see what happens.

UPDATE: OK with cookies enabled no change, it is just as you describe. It could require third party cookies which Fx 154 default to Not allowed.

Yeap! by allowing All cookies the site works fine. Though I didn't see any cookies added, but no doubt they will .

UPDATE:

Some code they use

<script type="text/javascript"> (function () { 'use strict'; var COOKIE_NAME = 'OTGPPConsent'; try { function getCookie(name) { try { if (typeof document === 'undefined' || !document.cookie) { return ; } var re = new RegExp('(?:^|;\\s*)' + name.replace(/[.*+?^\x24{}()|[\]\\]/g, '\\$&') + '=([^;]*)'); var match = document.cookie.match(re); if (!match) { return ; }' return decodeURIComponent(match[1]); } catch (e) { return ; }

I also see that they have the same format with the band at the bottom to allow cookies, etc. I also get the hand icon, but no response from clicking. (I do have cookies enabled).

All cookies ?

Privacy and security > Enhanced Tracking Protection > Advanced settings > Customise tracking protection > Cookies > Allow all cookies

@amoun, I followed this to allow all cookies, but it still doesn't work for me...

Did you clear the sites History and date etc. as it may have left a corrupt memory.

By the way I'm currently using a RaspPi version of Debian, what are you using?

Mint 22.3 on desktop.

OK Using Ubuntu now. About to Allow All

UPDATE:

Yes allowing all cookies works with Noble, but I am using Fx 147 (snap) ???

OK. Updated Fx to 154.0.1 on Ubuntu and all fine if I [Allow All Cookies]

So it looks like you may have some cookie conflict, basically a bad oven that is not cooking to specs.

Could be clogged jets if gas, and whichever I def would do a thorough clean.
