The cookies bug keeps persisting each time I am inviting new editor to any of the sites.
They have to do some mumbo jumbo with cookies, even though they have logged in to Webflow for the first time, change browsers etc before it starts working. Here’s the thread I created long time ago and it basically describes it "Missing authorization cookie" error message in Editor
Another thing is editor not working on mobile, this would be half of the problem, but even when browser windows is slightly narrower than usual and site goes into Tablet breakpoint, Editor keeps thinking it is a mobile device. I think it is simple enough to detect browser, no?
These things make Webflow Editor laughable each time and my editors start resenting Webflow as a brand and joking each time something else is not working in Webflow.
This is a photo recently sent to my by the editor…
I understand that developers are super busy with implementation of new core in Webflow, but I really hope all that will be fixed. Let’s beat Wordpress together.
Hi @radmitry, thanks for the post, let me help with some info on these items
The Missing Authorization Cookie message means that for some reason, the browser that is being used to access the editor is not allowing cookies from third party sites, or is not allowing cookie creation at all.
The reasons why the cookie is not getting created is in most cases that the browser privacy and cookie preferences need to be updated to allow *.webflow.com to store cookies. Webflow needs this to be able to the login state of the user.
Because the editor is being used on a custom domain, i.e. mysite.com, and the editor login cookie is coming from Webflow.com, the browser must be set to allow cookies from third party sites and adding *.webflow.com the list of sites that are allowed will help resolve the issue.
This only affects to the Editor login, not to public site visitors.
