<sigh>
just trying to pay a bill. I've got a bank that REQUIRES popups to be enabled before I can pay my bill.
Once upon a time Safari had a little check mark (button or whatever you'd call it) that allowed popups - now that button is missing. =(
Well, I never liked bills anyway.
looks like i have version 12 (Safari)
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
Okay, this worked for me:

This might be better too - if you can permanently set to popup or not popup for certain websites only. Whereas before to pop or not was a general setting for all (which meant every-time I visited my bank I had to first enable popups and then disable once I was done paying my bill.)

Thanks for the explanation, that is very useful.
Unfortunately, not a single page can be changed from ‘Block and notify’, so that I can no longer download bank statements, among other things. I do not understand this.
@Eric Root - No specific error message was seen. The problem was popups being blocked leading to nothing happening when visiting my bank to pay a bill. This has been fixed.
My memory is a bit fuzzy now being that three weeks hav rolled on by since I fixed this issue. But, I believe, in Safari, the block/allow popup radio button (for all websites) became a list of websites that you can block or allow popups depending upon which site you visit. Once I added my bank URL to that list I don't need to explicitly allow popups during that brief moment once a month while paying bills.
What happens when you try? Error message(s)?
I read your fix and you did it correctly. My last post was a question to smolk, who posted that they weren't able to make the changes to popups.
New Version of Safari Doesn't allow Popups?
