How do I disable the Web Push Notification box?

I'm not talking about having agreed to receive notifications, I'm talking about the box that pops up asking me if I'd like to request notifications. It's got a flag in my address bar and I can't make it go away in my Firefox settings.  It pops up every time I open a new post even if I click on "not now".  I did about:config and set the dom.push.enabled to false and that also has not got rid of it.  Any ideas?

I don't use Firefox, but have you tried going into your account settings? Over on the right hand side of that page is notification settings. There might be something in there.

Yes but in there it gives me the option to enable browser notification but there is no option to disable the box that pops up asking me over and over again on each page.  You would think having it in the settings would be good enough, or the pop up box should have an option to "not show this message again".  It's annoying enough to possibly drive me away from the site.

PS edit:  It's definitely a Firefox problem, I tried Chrome and it's not there, even the notification enable box in the account settings is not there.  I will have to use Chrome to use celiac.com or I will quit Firefox altogether.  It used to be great but this isn't the first thing it's done lately that drives me crazy.

I fixed it!  You open a Firefox tab and type about:config in the address bar.  Click "I'll be careful I promise".  Then you find these four items:

 

dom.push.enabled

dom.webnotifications.enabled

dom.webnotifications.serviceworker.enabled

dom.push.connection.enabled

 

Click on each of them to change them to FALSE.

For now the problem is fixed. Let's hope Firefox doesn't reset it to default their next update or whatnot. Sheesh.

Love it! So glad you got it fixed!

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat.  In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue.   A wedge pillow will really help with this - or raising the top bed legs with bricks.

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
