Cookie Manager by Rob W

by Eda190, 8 years agoEditing cookies doesn't work (I clicked Add / Edit cookie, Copy last selected, wrote my value and hit save, and nothing happened. Cookie still bears the old value), UI is crappy and user unfriendly. Definitely wouldn't recommend for anyone looking for replacement of legacy but well working https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-manager-plus/
EDIT: To adress author's comment - I mean the value of the actual cookie. It doesn't update in interface neither touches the cookie at all. It still has the value that it had before I tried to edit it (tested with my own website).
I suggest you to fix the bugs, make standart addon interface - a window rather than HTML page (So I don't have to type the adress myself, but just click the button on the page where I want my cookies displayed). Then I will gladly change my rating and will happily use this addon. Until then, disabled.

What do you mean by "cookie still bears the old value"?
Are you looking at the interface,
the interface after clicking on "Search" again,
or the site itself?
The results in the interface are not automatically updated when new cookies are added (the reason is to make sure that the interface looks stable; if the interface were to be updated immediately, then any cookie change initiated by another website can cause the list of cookies to move around).
PS. In the next update the workflow for editing will be improved, every cookie will have an Edit button to edit the content and automatically update the UI to mark the cookie as edited.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Davide, 2 months agoStrange, it doesn't work anymore. It makes my Firefox freeze completely (99% CPU)
- Rated 1 out of 5by Jm, 6 months agoThis ap does not remove all cookies or other cookie-like traces left by most sites. If you go to Tools>Settings>Privacy& Security> Manage Data and click twice on "Last used" you will see most recent cookies left by all sites. You will also see the ones Cookie Manager leaves on your computer. You can delete them from there so why use Cook. Mgr. and then have to visit Tools to complete the removal??
- Rated 3 out of 5by BoilingOil, 7 months agoNot happy about the removal of the very helpful option to quickly set the search time/date to NOW. That was actually the most useful feature this extension had, and now it's gone... -2 stars for that.

- Rated 1 out of 5by MartyGreg, 2 years agoFor a normal user who wants to see all cookies and be able to delete some or all, this is unusable.

- Rated 4 out of 5by John Doe, 3 years agoThis addon is great for Firefox. But there are no Chrome cookie addon that supports importing from this addon's exported cookies. They (cookie addons available on Chrome web store) doesn't recognize JSON cookie file that exported by Cookie Manager. I'd love to see Chrome version of Cookie Manager!
