Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
I have changed permissions.default.image to value of 2, yet images (photos) do not load. Any suggestions? Thank you

Mine is set to 1 and images always load.

Can you add some explanation? The default value is 1. 2 will block all images.

Re: Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
I'm having trouble with Firefox not loading images but only on some, select web sites. How does one go about checking permissions.default.value?

Curious:
My Firefox is as Paul's:
In the Address Bar type About:Config and press enter. Read the warning and then accept the risk. The config page appears, it has a search bar across the top. Type in 'permissions' and you'll get a filtered list of just the lines involving 'permissions'. Find the line you want and then RIGHT click on it to get at the 'modify' option.

Re: Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
Thanks, Ken!
I didn't remember that the syntax for about:config requires a colon separator. I was using a period and was diverted to another page.
I tried changing from the default value, 1, to zero without effect.

Re: Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
Hello, all, and thanks for your posts.
I had initially left the value at 1, but since I wasn't seeing images, I changed it to 2. No images, naturally. I reset the value at 1 and now do get images. Perhaps the resetting did the trick, as has happened with other settings over the years.
Thanks again.

Re: Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
There are many reasons why (some) images do not show up, and this rather obscure setting has most of the time nothing to with it.

Re: Firefox 62 Load Images Automatically
Yeah, sometimes it depends on the site you're using, on the status of the original host of the images... Changing that setting can help, but it won't bring back images deleted from their hosting site/previously hosted on a site that's now down from the purgatory of the Internet, and won't fix terrible page designs that are so demanding in resources that images take time to load, or straight up fail to show up...
