### Installation
|
|
|
[Download and install the latest version](https://bitbucket.org/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/downloads)
|
|
|
Here you can also find a limited permissions version (custom sites will not be working though).
|
|
|
Install add-on by downloading xpi-file.
|
|
|
On Android this add-on only works with Firefox 68 (Fennec); Firefox 79 (Fenix) only supports 9 add-ons (for now).
|
|
|
So don't update to Firefox 79 or use F-droid's [Fennec-release](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/)

_*free articles only._
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Sites with limited number of free articles
|
|
|
The free article limit can normally be bypassed by removing cookies for the site.*
|
|
|
1. Install the add-on [Cookie Remover](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-remover/).
|
|
|
2. When coming across a paywall click the cookie icon to remove the cookies then refresh the page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If removing the cookies works you can also add the site as a custom site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
_*May not always succeed_
|
|
|
|
|
|
### New site requests
|
|
|
You can submit a request for a new website [here](https://bitbucket.org/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/issues?status=new&status=open).
|
|
|
Please read the following instructions and share your results for a quicker process.
|
|
|
Remember to check the [previous requests](https://bitbucket.org/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clean/issues) before asking for a new website.
|
|
|
1. Visit an article on the site you want to bypass the paywall for and copy the article title.
|
|
|
2. Open up a new incognito window (Ctrl+Shift+P) and paste the article title into Google.
|
|
|
3. Click on the same article from the Google search results page. Or you can:
|
|
|
4. Disable javascript on the website by clicking the button right icon </> on the uBlock Origin panel.
|
|
|
5. Refresh the page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Add custom site
|
|
|
Add your own custom site (also for testing).
|
|
|
Check 'Options'-link in popup-menu and go to custom sites.
|
|
|
Make sure the (new) site is checked under Options.
|
|
|
By default sites' cookies/local storage are removed after page loads (to bypass article limit).
|
|
|
Also you can enable Googlebot user-agent or disable Javascript for (sub)domain(s)/external sources.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
|
* This add-on works best alongside the adblocker [uBlock Origin](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/).
|
|
|
* If a site doesn't work try turning off uBlock and refreshing.
|
|
|
* Make sure the (new) site is checked under Options.
|
|
|
* You will be logged out for most of the sites you have checked.
|
|
