  • ERROR RESOLVED An error occurred during the migration to 3.3.7 or a later version due to an adjustment in 3.3.7 made in response to WordPress 6.8. However, this update provides a simple way to migrate from Borlabs Cookie 2.3.x to Borlabs Cookie 3.x again. This update does not automatically enable the upgrade request to version 3.0 as announced in the e-mail.

  • IMPROVED A new setting "Auto Update Time Span" has been introduced to replace the previous setting. You can now define a 2-hour window during which Borlabs Cookie will install package updates. The exact time when an update will be applied is shown in the package details of any package with an available update.

  • ERROR RESOLVED An error notice was previously triggered when a Service Cookie lacked a hostname or path. This has been resolved.
