Asked by Clive X

Do you intend rewriting this extension with WebExtensions to support Firefox 57 and beyond or will this extension stop working?

Yes ... But right now I didn't have a lots of motivation for it. I have others stuff to do.

I already have started it, but anyway, it won't have all the functionalities of the previous one, because the WebExtensions is by far more limited than Moz Extensions.
For what I've seen, I will be only able to manage cookies.

Re "WebExtensions is by far more limited than Moz Extensions. For what I've seen, I will be only able to manage cookies."

This is sad news. I don't suppose you would be interested in updating to the last version of Firefox that allows Moz Extensions (I believe that will be v56. I have come to rely on CookieKeeper. It is an invaluable tool.

Frankly, am disgusted that with Firefox 57 legacy extensions will no longer be allowed.

I have always intended to donate to CookieKeeper but cannot see how here or at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookiekeeper/

Can you help with this problem?
