Cookie warning...

Postby Bill Marquardt » October 25th, 2018, 9:44 am

Richard, every time I open the forum I see a message at the bottom of the screen asking me to agree to the use of cookies on this site. Even after I click on "I Agree" I see the message again next time I open the forum.

Is this the way it is supposed to work? I am using Safari on an iMac.

It should only show that message once. After you have agreed to it, it should not show again. For some reason your computer isn't taking the cookie. But all is well here.

If you clear your history after every browsing session, automatically or manually, this could happen depending upon the parameters you use to perform the clearance.

It seems okay now. Must have had something to do with upgrading to Mojave O.S. :)

Say what you want, but Apple computers drive me crazy. I also had an icon for an anti-virus program that repeatedly showed up in the dock even after I told it not to in the settings. I had to delete the app to get rid of the icon.

Love the new issue of Genii, by the way.
