This way is, IMO, the crude way to do this. Turn SELinux off, if you chose
to do so, in the SELinux configuration file.

/etc/selinux/config

change SELINUX=enforcing

to SELINUX=disabled

When you eventually update to a newer version of Fedora there will be
better configuration GUIs available for you.
