How can I get Mapbox objects to appear?

Browser Support Desktop Support
1

Any webpage that contains a Mapbox object (map, chart, etc.) just shows a white space instead of the intended object.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Go to https://www.visible.com/plans/coverage
  2. Note that the map is just white space
  3. Repeat the test in Chrome
  4. The map appears properly

Expected result:
The map should appear.

@gdstuart,
Seeing the map appear on my end without issue:

Can you test with Shields down (lion icon in the address bar) just to see if this causes the map to appear?

That was the issue. Do you have any suggestions about what setting(s) I can flip so this will appear with Shields up?

Thanks!

I reported it as suggested to the Developers.

@gdstuart,
Thanks for testing. So what I would do is turn Shields back on so that the issue appears again, then open the Shields panel and disable each protection one at a time until you find the offending protection. That will give us more information to go on.

Changing “Aggressively Block Fingerprinting” to “Block Fingerprinting” solved it. I assume I can leave that setting and it will enable the maps all the time when I’m on the visible.com site. What about other sites that utilize Mapbox? I probably won’t remember this one exception, so I’ll be right back in the same situation six months from now.

@gdstuart,
You can set your global Shields settings such that all sites start with Block fingerprinting by default (Settings --> Shields). But yes you’re right, the settings set in the Shields panel (specifically) is a site specific setting.
