Deletes 3rd party cookies in snooze mode #165

Closed bege10 closed 5 years ago

bege10 commented 5 years ago

Hi, I just need the snooze mode for the first time to not have paypal cookies deleted from www.traystatus.com. But forget-me-not still deletes the paypal cookies. The tooltip on the button says "currently disabled" (translated from German) Firefox 66.0.5, forget-me-not 2.2.2, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit SP1

Hi @bege10, sorry for about the delay. The snooze mode doesn't disable black rules. Did you maybe add paypal to black rules?

bege10 commented 5 years ago

Black rules are rules to instantly delete cookies, right? No, I didn't have any rules for paypal. Meanwhile I added grey rules (delete at startup) for paypal and paypal related domains to have paypal work correctly. But to use paypal as third party cookies I had to use a browser without the add-on.

Can't reproduce this issue.. I'm using paypal on a regular basis. Could you send me your config?

bege10 commented 5 years ago

I didn't have any payments with paypal, so I just tried www.google.de. There also third party cookies google.com are removed in snooze mode. forget-me-not-settings.zip

Thanks for the settings. This seems to be an issue with the experimental option "deny third party cookies". It is not affected by the snooze mode.

For now, try disabling it and instead enable the "remove third party cookies on creation". This should avoid your issues. I will add a fix in the next version.

I've submitted the new version. It might take some time though for it to be approved, since FMN is in the new "recommended extension" program of Mozilla, which requires a more in-depth code review.

Thank you very much. Works great.
