Cookies Pop Up On Every page

Hello

I'm getting the accept ads /cookies pop up everywhere! Clicking on a new thread, clicking on active threads or even threads I'm watching.

I don't have any kind of ad blocker.

On a mobile using the Samsung Internet browser.

Please help! It's driving me crazy.

Edited to add: Even after pressing submit on this post it's popped up. Then a further time when I pressed Edit.

Hello @BoredBirdy this isn't something that should be happening - but it's often caused by a browser plug-in.

How to check for browser add-ons in the Samsung browser:

  1. Open the Samsung Internet app
  2. Tap the three lines (≡) in the bottom-right corner.
  3. Open Add-ons
  4. Look under Content blockers and Other add-ons.
  5. If you see anything related to ad blocking, privacy, tracking protection, or cookies, it may be causing the repeated pop-ups.
  6. Tap the add-on and switch it off, or disable content blockers.
  7. Close the browser completely, then reopen it and try the site again.

If the problem stops, the add-on was likely the cause. You can leave it off, or re-enable add-ons one at a time to find the exact one responsible.

Apologies for all the hassle - please let us know how you get on with this.
