How Can I Whitelist Stored Cookies? #597

Open geedogz opened 2 years ago

geedogz commented 2 years ago

Hi.. I installed your addon today and set it to automatic mode. In firefox, I stored a few cookies in Cookies and Site Data > Manage Exceptions that I never want to keep in container. How do I whitelist these stored cookies? ..

If you set a "never" exception it should just block the cookies. Not sure if this works in containers, but I assume it does. Might want to manually check.

If you set an "allow" exception the cookie should be stored regularly inside the container – given it does work in containers – but will be removed together with the temporary container. If you want to have permanent cookies inside a TC, you'd need to use the feature "cookies" in the "advanced" preference section.
