If you want to customise your Safari window’s Toolbar, there are a variety of useful tools that can be added.
You can tailor specific settings like the zoom level, location
services, content blockers and more for individual websites. These
settings are then applied whenever you load that site. Open the
website and in the Safari menu, select Settings for This Website.
Page Zoom and Auto-Play are set with pull-down menus that appear
when you hover over their current values. By default, the Auto-Play
function stops videos with sound automatically playing when you
open a site but you can override this using the Auto-Play menu.//AppleUserMAGAZINE
