- Rated 4 out of 5by Ruffus Lenhador, 5 years agoHello, how are you.
You could make an option to "keep only cookies from logged in accounts" that's just what I'm looking for. If this is possible of course.
I think it would be of great help to less advanced users like me as the option to delete all firefox cookies will log out of all accounts on exit.
Thanks. - Rated 4 out of 5by KИIGHTMARE, 6 years agoSeems like a good addon in regards to easily managing cookies, but would it be possible to add an automatic clean up option as soon as you leave the site?

posted 6 years agoHi, there is indeed a (technical) limitation on this subject.
The question is addressed here: https://github.com/ysard/cookie-quick-manager/issues/55
In fact this type of "blocking" is much more a role for a firewall like uMatrix (an excellent addon on this subject and I can not hope to do better :) ). - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14915853, 6 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by NetVicious, 6 years agoThe addon works perfectly but IMHO it lacks one option. I want to delete cookies from some sites forever with one option called as example Delete+blacklist or similar. Please try to add it to the extension and it will be perfect.

posted 6 years agoHi, an option to remove all cookies from the current context will be present on the next version.
I am considering an improvement regarding the removal of cookies related to the page viewed.
However, a finer management and (in my opinion) very well done via whitelist / blacklist can be found on the uMatrix addon that I advise you. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14353671, 6 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14072894, 7 years agoWhy it should have permission to modify privacy settings now?! What's required by specific features could be given by telling user what should be, and how to be edited, or at least provide an option to let extension asking users who needs these features to allow these permission.
--------
Edit 1: Thanks for your patiently reply. Despite that the permissions are required, this extension's context support helped me in time to perfectly experience FF Context feature.
As for granting permission, there's a extension called "SiteDelta Highlight" on AMO you could refer to. Click into its settings page, which displays prompt "Advanced features (that require additional permissions) are disabled." with a button "Enable advanced features...".
Then click on that button, Firefox will prompt it requires additional permissions. So I think it should be able to grant several parts of permissions separately.
And a few advice:
1. Add context to directly "move to container" rather than only "copy to"
2. Ability to select multiple domain / multiple cookies at the same time
3. Every button in the bottom has hang-over tool-tips except the first one from left (and the forth, well it's easy to guess it is for donating). So... the first button with a trash bin icon is so disturbing I don't know what scope it applies to, neither know if it will ask me to sure before doing something.
4. Right-click context menu is not fully visible when click on item close to window border.
5. Why I couldn't copy expired cookies to other container? if it's exist when I access its website it would seem to be refreshed, so it maybe useful, why can't move it?Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi, it's a good question; the need for access rights to the API "privacy" is already explained on the presentation page of the addon:
Access and modify various privacy-related browser settings (the FirstPartyIsolation flag here).
Detecting the status of the FirstPartyIsolation option is absolutely necessary from Firefox 58 for people who want to use this extra protection.
This is a nightly feature that is currently not available other than through about:config for public versions of Firefox.
The API is here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/privacy/websites
The way Firefox handles permissions is all or nothing: all permissions are granted or none of them are.
To my knowledge I can not ask the user to selectively accept a permission and not another.
If you have an example of this type of form, please create an issue on the GitHub so that I can explore that.
In any case if the access to the privacy API is refused, the addon will not be able to manage the cookies created with the option FirstPartyIsolation activated, even if this one is deactivated later.
Regards. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14200222, 7 years agoGreat extension for both viewing ad deleting cookies. However, the latest update put in a "feature" Idon't like - the confirmation for deleting all cookies. There should be a way to turn it off once someone is used to the severe effects of this feature. I open individual sites in new private tabs in Firefox and so when finished, I need to remove all the cookies. I do this continually so I dislike having to confirm each time. There should be a way to turn it off.
Another feature I like with the latest revision is the ability to auto-refresh. However, that feature only stays on until the next time I open Frefox. It should be persistent.
Other than these two issues, this is a 5 star addon.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi, thank you for the review.
I will integrate the ability to bypass the alert dialog, and I will ensure that the state of the checkbox is the last selected by the user. - Rated 4 out of 5by Tim Macinta, 7 years agoThis is the best cookie manager for developers that I've found so far for recent versions of Firefox. I previously used Cookies Manager+, before Firefox Quantum broke it. Cookie Quick Manager isn't a full replacement for Cookies Manager+ yet, but it's decent, and I sense that it will continue to improve.
One suggestion for the author: I wish that the "Delete all the cookies" action were harder to do accidentally. Perhaps a confirmation dialog or moving it to a menu would help. There are three trash can icons without labels and the "delete all" button has very wide reaching side effects. - Rated 4 out of 5by Kowts, 7 years ago

EN: just why is the window so big with so much emptiness?Developer response
posted 7 years agoSalut, pas évident de tout afficher de manière claire en limitant les popups.
Cookie Manager+ utilisait des fenêtres et gagnait effectivement de la place.
Je vais néanmoins réfléchir pour limiter les espaces superflus :)
