Cookie editing is still missing. Without this feature a wider adoption of FF dev tools or its full utility as a wedev tool is impossible. Yes, I voted for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1031192 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1031192. Please do the same. Thanks.

You can edit cookies with the "Developer Toolbar". It's under "Tools -> Web Developer" and reachable with the shortcut "Shift+F2". It's not brilliant but it works well.

  I second that. The GCLI is pretty awesome. It is a huge work in progress but still works pretty neat. Here is the entire documentation: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI#Commands https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI#Commands (links to list of commands, I suggest reading the entire page). The best part is that it is extensible (Scratchpad FTW!) :)

    The 'security' command is also a really nice tool to tweak your page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI/Display_security_information https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI/Display_...

  Nice! Thanks. New to me. Still, considering how "not brilliant" this feature is, I'd rather use Chrome dev tools when cookie editing/deleting is needed.

    Chrome doesn't have the ability to edit cookies built-in, either, does it? All I can find is viewing and deleting.

You can use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-manager-plus/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-manag... which has a great UI for editing cookies, and the permanent search filter that will limit shown cookies to the matching domain(s)

  Thanks. I'd rather use Chrome dev tools for now.

Thanks for voting - I agree this is a critical gap but I have high hopes to get it fixed very soon.
