Love Love Love this extension. Been so frustrated by having to delete cookies one by one or list each site to block painstakingly. Kept hoping I could just specify which cookies to keep and automatically get rid of all others. Well, my wish came true. Thank you and I tried to donate but was info'd you cannot accept any donations right now.

I have tried many cookie managers and this is by far the best for me.The really best option is blacklist *.* and then whitelist the desired domains. Very powerful. I have sent a donation

Yes, it's the best cookie manager for Firefox and Chrome. It's stable, functional, and the minimal UI is sufficiently usable. I came from Cookie Auto Delete, but that extension would use up too much CPU. Switched to Cookiebro and it's been much better.

Features request: 1) could you add "Clear current domain cookies"? This is useful for developers and troubleshooting web site issues. If the current domain is whitelisted, "clear unwanted cookies" will not clear them, even if the user wants to. The workaround is to go to the log and delete each. It would be nice to have the option to clear all current domain cookies. 2) is it possible to NOT clear the cookies of a domain that was visited within X minutes of the 'Delete unwanted every X minutes' option? I was online shopping and the items in my cart disappeared. I realized it must have been Cookiebro coming around to clean unwanted cookies.

Thank you.

Cookiebro is probably the best cookie manager for Chrome and Firefox, built on the bones of the now-abandoned Vanilla cookie manager extension (which I missed).

I found it easy to use, and relatively intuitive. Keep cookies in whitelists and block cookies in blacklists, and easily purge the rest cookies on-demand or automatically. Import or export lists as a simple text file that is simple to edit. The cookie log view and cookie editor are powerful tools whether managing privacy or just debugging.

Minor issues: While adding and removing list items is easy, one can't edit them in place. For example, if I have "getpocket.com" in my whitelist, and want to change it to "*.getpocket.com", I have to add the latter as a new element, and then remove the former. I also wish the extension would sync settings across browsers, so I didn't have to spend as much time importing and exporting.

For managing and auto-deleting cookies, also try the excellent Cookie AutoDelete (CAD) extension. Choosing between that and Cookiebro is a matter of personal preference.

Incredible addon! Takes the reigns over from Vanilla Cookie Manager which was a great addon, that no longer works.

Cookiebro Has a similar and simple gui in which you can click the toolbar button to whitelist or more whitelists for sites and domain rangers so no digging in options each time. It clears cookies as expected, keeps protected whitelisted cookies, AND clear sessionid and local storage (which vanilla never did).

Fantastic addon, a real necessity to stay in control of your cookies.

Just wish the toolbar button was better at showing if the site you were on had a whitelist rule already set or not.
