Question

Flash was blocked on this page

I have an issue with flash player plugin saying flash was blocked on this page.

This is primarily in chrome, although it also does not work on Internet Explorer, Edge, Firefox and another few browser types I tried.

I have, following other older forums:-

Checked I was on the latest version of all browsers and flash

Uninstalled all browsers and flash and reinstalled

Cleared all local and global settings

Changed flash settings to ask every time and added the website address to the exceptions list under the heading allow.

Please can anyone help? This is driving me insane now.

Thanks

    This is the browser(s)  blocking the plugin, not the plugin blocking itself.

    Flash Player Help contains links to instructions to enable Flash on the various browsers.

    For Chrome, you can try the following:

    1. Launch Chrome and navigate to chrome://settings/content/flash
    2. In the Allow section, click Add
    3. In the Add a site window, enter http://*
    4. Click Add
    5. n the Allow section, click Add
    6. In the Add a site window, enter https://*
    7. Click Add
    8. Reload the browser

    This may or may not work

    It still comes up Flash was blocked on this page.

    On the developer failures it comes up

    A parser-blocking, cross site (i.e. different eTLD+1) script, https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js, is invoked via document.write. The network request for this script MAY be blocked by the browser in this or a future page load due to poor network connectivity. If blocked in this page load, it will be confirmed in a subsequent console message. See https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5718547946799104 for more details.

    Does that help to find the issue?

    sounds like a content issue - according to your info, the content is too small and Chrome (not Flash Player) is blocking it.
