I have an embedded video on my site and when I click on PLAY there is an error showing  "Adobe Flash Player is blocked on this browser."   I have tried many times but the same error is showing.  This is my site.  What can I do?

"but why"


As indicated in the FAQ the OP posted, Flash Player has reached end-of-life.  Major browser vendors have removed support for Flash Player, thus it no longer functions in the browser.  As the content creator, the only thing you can do is stop using Flash content and move to some other technology.

Hi @18222637,

Nobody uses Flash videos anymore, not since browsers started supporting HTML5 video which does not require any plugins or special players. 

 

See a working example of HTML5 video below.

Hope that helps.
