How can I resolve the issue of being unable to login to the Webflow editor using Safari on macOS due to the warning about third party cookies? I have already tried disabling extensions, unchecking the 'block third party cookies' setting in preferences, clearing cookies, and republishing the site but none of these solutions have worked. Is there a permanent solution for this problem? I am concerned about potential difficulties in the future since most users will be using Safari.

TL;DR
  • Disable "Prevent cross-site tracking" in Safari’s Privacy settings and restart the browser.
  • Log in via https://webflow.com/editor instead of the live site.
  • Try logging in using Safari’s private browsing mode to rule out extensions or caching issues.
  • Clear Webflow-related site data in Safari settings and restart the browser.
  • If issues persist, consider using Chrome or Firefox for a more stable Webflow editing experience.

1. Enable "Allow Cross-Website Tracking" in Safari

  • Go to Safari > Settings (or Preferences) > Privacy.
  • Ensure "Prevent cross-site tracking" is unchecked.
  • Restart Safari and try logging into the Webflow Editor again.

2. Use Webflow’s Editor URL Directly

  • Instead of logging in through the live site, use https://webflow.com/editor and select your site from there.
  • This can bypass potential cookie-related login issues.

3. Try Safari's Private Browsing Mode

  • Open a private window (File > New Private Window) and attempt to log in via https://webflow.com/editor.
  • If this works, an extension or cached setting might still be interfering in normal mode.

4. Reset Safari to Default Settings

  • Go to Safari > Settings > Privacy > Manage Website Data.
  • Search for "webflow", select it, and click Remove.
  • Restart Safari and retry the Webflow Editor login.

5. Consider a Different Browser for Editing

  • If Safari continues to block third-party cookies aggressively, Chrome or Firefox may be more stable for Webflow’s Editor.
  • This would ensure a smoother workflow while Safari’s privacy policies evolve.

Summary

Ensure "Prevent cross-site tracking" is disabled, try logging in via https://webflow.com/editor, and test in a private window. If issues persist, clearing Webflow-related site data or switching browsers can be a workaround. Safari's handling of third-party cookies may continue to cause login issues, so using Chrome or Firefox for Webflow editing may be necessary.
