can't set default behavior to Block #103

Closed skleene closed 6 years ago

skleene commented 6 years ago

I've installed Forget Me Not (v1.0.5) in Firefox 60.2.1esr running on Debian v9 (Stretch). Manual cleanup works, and I've been able to whitelist a site. I've been unable to set "Behavior if no rule matches" to Block. Should that be possible? The dropdown menu offers Block as a choice, and I see no error message. But if I bring up the Rules menu again, it still shows the default (Forget). And cookies are allowed to accumulate. I reset all settings to the defaults before doing these tests.

I'd like to block cookies from all sites except one. That worked well for me with the selectivecookiedelete add-on. Maybe an alternative in Forget Me Not is to set the delays to 0.

Any advice? Thank you.

That should be possible. I wasn't able to reproduce.. I'll see if I can get a virtual box up and running with debian v9 and firefox 60.2.1esr to see if I can reproduce it there.

Thank you. I'll stay tuned. As I said, it might also work to select Forget and set the delays to 0.

This problem was fixed when I upgraded from Firefox 60.2.1esr to 60.2.2 esr. Thanks again.

That's very weird. Thanks for the heads up. I will try to keep an open eye on this nevertheless.
