# Bypass Paywalls Clean for Firefox

Add-on allows you to read articles from (supported) sites that implement a paywall.  
You can also add a domain as custom site and try to bypass the paywall.  
Weekly updates are released for fixes and new sites.

### Installation
You can install the add-on from [GitLab releases](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/releases)\
Download the xpi-file (from latest release), go to downloads and install the add-on.\
Or go to Tools > Add-ons (about:addons) > Extensions > Settings/Cogwheel - Install Add-on from File\
Custom xpi-file has host permissions for all sites.\
Minumum browser requirement: Firefox 86+.

If you want to permanently install the latest [master ZIP-file from GitLab](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/archive/master/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean-master.zip) (with post-release fixes) use a Firefox browser which allows using unsigned add-ons like Firefox Developer Portable (go to about:config and set xpinstall.signatures.required to false) or LibreWolf (for both no automatic updates of add-on).\
Or load a temporary add-on in regular Firefox (go to about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox & load manifest.json from unpacked (master-zip) folder.

By default BPC has limited host permissions, but you can opt-in to enable custom sites (and also clear cookies/block general paywall-scripts for unlisted sites). You can also just request permissions for the custom sites you added yourself (or click `clear cookies` (BPC-icon) to ask for permission for current site).\
You can also install the custom add-on version (with host permissions for all sites).

### Update
Add-on will automatically update or you can do a manual check for updates (in about:addons).\
Either way you have to allow host permissions for newly supported sites (else no update will be installed).\
You can also check for update of site rules at startup (opt-in); only available until about 10 days after fix-release.\
For new sites you also have to opt-in to custom sites/request permissions for new domains (or wait for new release).

### Android
Add-on was removed by Mozilla from add-on store.\
Current installations (by custom collection in Firefox Beta/Nightly or Firefox-clone) will stay active, but with no more updates.

There is still an elaborate workaround for regular Firefox though:
* install an old version of Firefox (like v68.11.0 from [archive.mozilla.org](https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/68.11.0/) or [apkmirror.com](https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/mozilla/firefox/firefox-68-11-0-release/) or Firefox-clone; you have to remove your current Firefox app (or use an old Firefox Beta version)
* download add-on's xpi-file (custom version if you want to use custom sites) from [releases](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/releases) and install/open in Firefox
* now you can update Firefox to the latest version
* add-on will stay active & automatically updates to the latest version
*  in add-ons it will be labeled as not yet available and also has no more option to enable the add-on in private browsing

The experimental Mozac/GeckoView-based browser [SmartCookieWeb-Preview](https://github.com/CookieJarApps/SmartCookieWeb-Preview/releases) can also install/sideload a xpi-file by url (Settings > Advanced settings > Sideload XPI).\
No option to enable the add-on in private browsing though.

Or switch to [Kiwi browser (Chromium)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiwibrowser.browser) or use the [adblocker filter/userscripts](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-clean-filters)

#### Chrome/Chromium
Visit the [Chrome repository](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean) of Bypass Paywall Clean.

#### iOS/iPadOS
Use adblocker with custom (content)filter & userscript (manager): https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-clean-filters

### Troubleshooting
* If a site doesn't work, first try to turn off your adblocker (or other extension) and refresh page.
* Make sure the (new) site is checked under Options.
* Clear cookies by add-on's icon and grant permission for site (or opt-in to custom sites)
* You will be logged out for most of the sites you have enabled.
* Make sure you're running the latest version of Bypass Paywalls Clean.
* Some sites need to redirect to an amp-page (add an exception in your `Redirect AMP to HTML` or `DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials` add-on).
* If none of these work, you can [submit an issue](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/issues).
* This add-on works best alongside the adblocker [uBlock Origin](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin).
* If you live in the EU, also consider adding these filters to your adblocker (in order to remove cookie warnings): [Easylist Cookies](https://secure.fanboy.co.nz/fanboy-cookiemonster.txt) | [I don't care about cookies custom filter](https://www.i-dont-care-about-cookies.eu/abp). Some sites need to set a consent-cookie for (social) media.

_* free articles only._

### Sites with limited number of free articles
The free article limit can normally be bypassed by removing cookies for the site.  
Click on the BPC-icon and then 'clear cookies'-button in the popup (for unsupported sites grant permission for domain).  
If removing the cookies works you can also add the site as a custom site.

### New site requests
You can [submit a request for a new website](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/issues).  
Please use the issue template (check READ FIRST issue), read the following instructions and share your results for a quicker process.  
Remember to check the [previous requests](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/issues?scope=all&state=all) before asking for a new website.  
1. Open incognito window and search for article in Google search (or webcache).
2. Clear cookies for the site (by this add-on: opt-in to custom sites or grant permission for the site; also enables blocking of general paywall scripts).
3. Disable Javascript on the site (by browser, uBlock Origin or other add-on).
4. Add the domain as custom site for more bypass options.
5. Open page in reader view (by browser or add-on).
6. Try one of the archive sites.

### Add custom site
Add your own custom site (also for testing).  
Check 'Options'-link in popup-menu and go to custom sites.
\* by default BPC has limited permissions, but you can opt-in to enable custom sites (and also clear cookies/block general paywall-scripts for unlisted sites). You can also just request permissions for the custom sites you added yourself (or `clear cookies` (BPC-icon) to ask for permission for current site).

By default sites' cookies/local storage are blocked/removed (for example to bypass article limit when metered paywall).

Additional custom options:
* allow/remove cookies (no options selected: cookies are blocked)
* set useragent to Googlebot, Bingbot or Facebookbot
* set referer (to Facebook, Google or Twitter; ignored when Googlebot is set)
* set random ip-address
* disable Javascript for (sub)domain(s), external domains (when host permission) and/or inline scripts
* block regular expression (to block specific script and/or xhr)
* unhide text amp-page
* redirect to amp-page when paywall(selector)
* load text from json when paywall|article(selector)
* load text from Google webcache when paywall|article(selector)
* add external link to archive-site when paywall|article(selector)
* remove/unhide elements in dom (optional for dev; check examples)

[Example list of custom sites](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/blob/master/custom/sites_custom.json) or [download list (json)](https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/-/raw/master/custom/sites_custom.json)

### Add excluded site
Add excluded sites/domains (for your subscriptions).\
You can also exclude a specific domain which is grouped in options.
