One of my web sites has reverted to only text after I had a notification to allow (something). How do I get the original perameters for that site

I was prompted yesterday to allow or not allow the site that I had used thousands of times (sorry I cannot remember the prompt). I agreed to allow and when breitbart loaded it appeared as an HTLM that was very different from the way it normally appears.

Please advise me as to how to undo what I did on this particular site. I am including an image of what the site appears like now.

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block (wanted) content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block (wanted) content.

  • make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version

Firefox shows the shield icon at the left end of the location/address bar in case content is blocked by Tracking Protection.

  • click the shield icon for more detail and possibly disable the protection
  • check the Web Console for more detail about what content is blocked by Tracking Protection
  • "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Web Developer

Can you attach a screenshot?

It ended up being Ublock origin, but thank you for your advice
