I need to stop the constant DU pop-up notifications.

[Mister Ed]

When logged on as a star member, I get constant pop-up messages when browsing DU. They read:

DU
We'd like to send you some notifications
Notifications can be turned off anytime from browser settings

Dismiss Allow

This happens only when browsing DU on my phone, where I use the Firefox browser. It doesn't happen in Firefox on my laptop.

I've tried disabling all notifications in my Firefox settings, but the pop-ups continue.

Is there anyone else who has encountered this problem, or might have advice on fixing it?

1. I want to know too.

5. I finally got rid of the pop-ups.

I gave in and clicked "Accept" instead of "Cancel" when the pop-up appeared on my phone. That was followed immediately by a dialog box asking, "Allow notifications from https ://www(etc.)?

I chose "No" in the second dialog box, and have been free of the pop-ups ever since.

2. I had that on my PC using Firefox

I allowed the notifications and then blocked them.

Dunno if this will help on your phone. I use Chrome on my Android and haven't had to do anything.

[Mister Ed]

3. Thank you. What steps did you take to block them once allowed? n/t

4. I believe I waited until I got a notification then I had an option to block them.

I don't recall specifically how.

I can also go to Firefox settings > Privacy & Security > Notifications and enter https://www.democraticunderground.com for a block, but this is on a PC so I'm not sure it applies to your situation.
