Used to work. Now all videos autoplay. I restarted and everything, it says Flashblock is enabled. What's up?

First, make sure that the site is not in the Allow list.

You can also contact its support site.

What Allow list? Under what?

I googled and it said to make sure javascript was enabled on firefox but the way it said to do that is not applicable to my version.

Please be more specific!

I have never used FlashBlock myself, but see if this helps you sort that out.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flashblock/ Please read About this Add-on. FAQ's are here: http://flashblock.mozdev.org/faq.html Or see the FlashBlock homepage - http://flashblock.mozdev.org/

Due to issues with FlashBlock months ago, many Firefox users have switched to Flash Control - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flash-control/ - I use it myself and like it.

Load the web page. Click the arrow next to the FlashBlock icon. There are two choices; Allow Flash For This Site, and Options.

make sure javascript was enabled on firefox

JavaScript (not Java) is built into Firefox.

Type about:config<Enter> in the address bar. If a warning screen comes up, press the Be Careful button. This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run. At the top of the screen is a search bar.

Enter javascript.enabled This should be true
