One update caused problems with the site menu so I just rolled back to a version that worked and stayed with it. * I’ve just updated to the latest version and the download problem is still happening. So is the menu problem so will be reverting back. * Cookie Banner Deactivating all extensions made no difference but it did work properly when in Incognito mode. * Clearing the cache didn’t seem to help at first but I repeated the clearance and that seems to have done the trick. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Complianz - GDPR/CCPA Cookie Consent] Youtube Placeholder file being downloaded](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-placeholder-file-being-downloaded/) * Thread Starter [Malcolm Ryan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/malcolm-ryan/) * (@malcolm-ryan) * [5 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-placeholder-file-being-downloaded/#post-13432580) * Hi Aert [@aahulsebos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aahulsebos/) * The Youtube links were originally set up just by copying and pasting the URL into the page in WordPress which then showed them as video. * The video’s were never set to autoplay. * Since my first post I’ve recreated the links by using the embed code from youtube( removing the Allow Autoplay code) and from the wordpress side using their Youtube block but got the same result of the MP4 file being downloaded on both occasions. * I’ve changed the links to text ones for the time being which eliminates the problem but if you can offer a solution to this problem I would be grateful. * Do you have a possible explanation for why the cookie banner keeps reappearing on one particular computer and browser (chrome)? As I said it works fine on the majority of the devices I’ve tried (and did on this one initially). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Access Denied message – but do have access to WPAdmin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/access-denied-message-but-do-have-access-to-wpadmin/) * Thread Starter [Malcolm Ryan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/malcolm-ryan/) * (@malcolm-ryan) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/access-denied-message-but-do-have-access-to-wpadmin/#post-13403011) * Thanks so much that did it. * File permissions for Index.php was showing 000. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Sixteen] No changes in version 1.6.1 ?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-changes-in-version-1-6-1/) * [Malcolm Ryan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/malcolm-ryan/) * (@malcolm-ryan) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-changes-in-version-1-6-1/#post-9551858) * There must be some difference between 1.5.6 and 1.6.1 as updating to the latter messed up the mobile version of my site (reverting back to 1.5.6 fixed the issue). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Jetpack -
