Cookies notification dilema

Hi

I recently started getting a cookies notification on a regular basis when returning to DIYAudio (screen shot) on my iPhone.

No idea why…and there is no button to accept cookies.

It’s only happening when I reopen Safari and go to my tab with DIYAudio.

I thought maybe something changed in my Safari settings?

I don’t have cookies blocked…and that doesn’t explain why I can’t accept them.

I can only exit out of the notification…and then it keeps coming back when I return.

I’m not good with this stuff.

Any suggestions?

incognito window is.
That's chrome's name for it, Safari calls it "Private Window".

but that has always been the case and I never had this issue before.

We've made quite a few changes to the way the site works recently, a few more add-ons have been installed (and uninstalled as we clean house), likely is something to do with one of those.

First step is me being able to reproduce the problem, which I can't seem to currently. Do you have a 100% repeatable pattern to get this message to pop up? Googling does find a few things, here is one report in 2019 with Edge:

https://xenforo.com/community/threa...ccept-them-to-continue-using-the-site.160119/

The issue for that person was that their edge settings were set to block cookies, resolved here. Also:

However we have always had "Enable board URL canonicalization" switched on. Hmm..

Hi Jason…thanks for looking into this…it’s not the end if the world.

I was kind if blowing the issue off for several days and not really paying attention.

It seemed almost like it depended on how long I was away from the site.

It might not happen if I was checking back on threads over shorter periods if time.

If I checked in in the morning it would pop up.

If I didn’t come back until later in the afternoon or evening it would also pop up.
 
@Jason, no more issues with 'oups message'. Thank you!

Had sometime strange thing when typing message: the answer window go to footer ( bas de page) and do not let see what i'm typing ( have to manually goes up to see the message).
It happen from time to time and i think more often when there is a link to YT in previous message but i'm not sure. I will watch out if it happen again.
I'm on Android/Samsung tablet and in dark mode skin.
