Enabling Cookies

Foliotek uses cookies to authenticate users when they are trying to access or create an account.  When a user attempts to access Foliotek through another website, such as Blackboard or eCampus, Foliotek is seen as a third party.  Some web browsers will block all third-party cookies by default.  This setting has to be changed in order for Foliotek to work correctly when accessed from another website.

Most browsers store this setting inside a 'Settings' area.  It is considered an 'Advanced' setting and will be located in an area for privacy or content settings.  Use the browser-specific instructions below to change the settings to allow third-party cookies.  This will ensure Foliotek works as it should, no matter how it is accessed.
