Clear all cookies via Delete Browsing Data need option to exclude Whitelisted Cookies

[code3]

I use the session only cookies option in settings and the white list works with that.

@code3 R U trolling? I just tested DBD to clear cookies, & it deleted all cookies, included whitelisted cookies!!!

[code3]

@dude99 No, I mean if you set your cookies to session only, whitelisted cookies do not delete after each session. For manual deletion and whitelisting, use an extension. Of course it would be good to implement it in Vivaldi natively, that’s why I upvoted your feature request.

P.S. why would I be trolling? How would removing your cookies benefit me?

@code3 said in Clear all cookies via Delete Browsing Data need option to exclude Whitelisted Cookies:

I mean if you set your cookies to session only, whitelisted cookies do not delete after each session.

Of course, that's the purpose of whitelisting cookies!

You aren't very clear in the previous post, & it's very misleading, especially the last part...

I use the session only cookies option in settings and the white list works with that.

I thought you meant the cookies whitelist now works with DBD.

Anyway, damage was done. Hope u will be much careful in the future. This could happen if English ain't your first language, but please proof read what u written before hitting Submit.

Have a nice day.

@dude99 Yeah, sorry about that. I probably shouldn’t have posted that in the first place, since you kind of mentioned it in your post.

@Gwen-Dragon So extension is the only way? I guess it can't be help since now Vivaldi also have to deal with the FLoC threat.

"Evil is good.", THIS gotta be the Google motivation slogan ever since they took down "Don't be Evil". :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes:

@dude99 Do you know if an extension can do this? Because V is basically an extension, if it can do this so can V.

very good idea , but i see this is from 2019 and not happened till now

[dude99]

@code3 No. but someone did suggested this: https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/336295

@dude99 That has a whitelist separate from Chromium. But maybe it is time to put something like that in the browser.

[Hadden89]

@Gwen-Dragon Yup. And I also fear would be a code with very high chances of breakage over the time.

[dude99]

@Hadden89 Hey, can't we do a fake restart Vivaldi to trick it delete the session cookies & preserve whitelisted one just like a real restart?

I'm no coder, but if Vivaldi can do that in between 2 sessions, it should be able to do that without actually shutdown the browser. right?

[dude99]

@kimoo This missing feature pretty much render DBD cookies useless to me. I have only use it twice so far, the 1st time is an unexpected disaster, the 2nd time happened a few days ago, also a disaster. LOL

[Hadden89]

@dude99 This is probably easier to do. I meant it was too risky patching chromium code for this feature. Probably something like the vivaldi adblocker but for cookies could work fine.
