sɣur joebt, 8 jaar geledenThanks for beginning a cookie manager for Fx 57+. I know it's brand new & takes a lot of work. Just trying to give some useful suggestions.
1) Re: Taurean75's comment: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/a-cookie-manager/reviews/896808/ - -
yes, I think they meant as in the link you posted: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/user_interface/Popups.
That's the way many addons provide menus, where options may require frequent changing.
2) If I understand, why have any addon open in a NEW TAB, instead of using a toolbar icon? Not a requirement for Fx 57 / webextensions? Or just the fastest way to get Cookie Manager up & running?
Most Fx 57 ready addons I use allow adding icons with drop menus to toolbar. Few require using about:addons to *change* (most) options - especially for cookies.
3) Suggestion: post a few more screenshots on MAO w/ some explanations. Probably entice more users to try it. I see Cookie Monster's dev has pulled it from AMO. Lots of users will be looking for replacement.
Keep up the good work. For ideas, I'd look at features in the more popular cookie managers - that aren't updating to webextensions.
If you want feedback of what's most important to users to implement 1st, maybe setup a support page on http://forums.mozillazine.org, as other addon devs did. One post could be a poll for wish list.
I could tell you some cookie features I've used most - for years, & read others say were important to them, but it'd make this review long(er). Maybe you don't need ideas for now. :) But, feel free to PM me.

yeffeɣ-d deg 8 jaar geleden> Curious-why open an addon in a new tab?
When I wrote this extension many years ago, I wanted to only enable it when I wanted to edit cookies, which is rarely.
When I published the add-on to Firefox, the initial use case is Firefox for Android, which does not have an extension button (as of Firefox 55, it is possible).
In version 1.3, I have added an option to not automatically open the add-on upon startup, and also an extension button to quickly access the cookie manager via the extension button.
3) The add-on is functional, but the UI is not really that strong. I expect the UI to be improved in one of the next versions, so I haven't published a screenshot yet.

I have published the source code on Github, together with an issue tracker @ https://github.com/Rob--W/cookie-manager/issues

- Yettwasezmel 2 ɣef 5sɣur Davide, 24 dagen geledenStrange, it doesn't work anymore. It makes my Firefox freeze completely (99% CPU)
- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur Jm, 5 maanden geledenThis 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??
- Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur BoilingOil, 6 maanden geledenNot 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.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Dan, 7 maanden geledenI successfully removed cookies for a specific site on Firefox for Android.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur gmonly, één jaar geledenseems to work good, the cookie quick manager would not work for me. this one not only lets you delete some, it also lets you edit them

- Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur MartyGreg, 2 jaar geledenFor a normal user who wants to see all cookies and be able to delete some or all, this is unusable.

- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur John Doe, 3 jaar geledenThis 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!
