Site Controls
WebLibre includes a site panel for the page you are currently viewing. This is where per-site controls live.
Use it when you want to:
-
check whether the connection is secure
-
disable or re-enable tracking protection for one site
-
review saved permissions for that site
-
change autoplay behavior
-
clear site-specific data without clearing the whole browser
Open the Current Site Panel
While you are on a website, open the current site’s page panel or site information view.
That panel can show controls tied to the site you are visiting, not the whole browser.
If a setting only affects one site, this is usually where WebLibre exposes it.
Connection Information
At the top of the site panel, WebLibre can show connection status such as:
-
Connection is secure
-
Connection is not secure
-
the certificate issuer when the connection is verified
This helps you tell the difference between:
-
normal secure HTTPS pages
-
insecure HTTP pages
-
pages where WebLibre could not verify the connection properly
If a page is not secure, avoid entering sensitive information there.
Per-Site Tracking Protection
The site panel includes a per-site Enhanced Tracking Protection switch.
When it is on, trackers for that site are blocked according to your global protection mode. When it is off, that site becomes an exception.
This is useful when:
-
one site breaks under strict protection
-
you want to test whether tracking protection is the cause
-
you want to keep your global setting strong but relax it for one difficult site
Sites where you turn this off appear in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking Protection Exceptions.
Site Permissions
The same panel can show saved permissions for the current site.
These may include permissions such as:
-
camera
-
microphone
-
location
-
notifications
-
persistent storage
-
cross-origin storage
-
DRM or protected media
For each permission, WebLibre can show:
-
Ask
-
Allow
-
Block
If there are no saved decisions yet, WebLibre may show No permissions set for this site. You can still use Show all to review the full list.
For general permission behavior, see Site Permissions.
Autoplay For One Site
The site panel also includes per-site autoplay control.
The current options are:
-
Allow All
-
Block Audible
-
Block All
Use this when one site should behave differently from your normal browsing expectations.
Clear Site Data
WebLibre can clear data for just the current site without wiping the whole browser.
In the site panel, expand Clear Site Data and choose what to remove.
The available data types are:
-
Cookies
-
Cached Files
-
Site Data
-
Auth Sessions
Then tap Clear Now and confirm the action.
This is useful when:
-
a site is stuck in a bad login state
-
one site is misbehaving after an update
-
you want to sign out of one site without clearing everything else
|
This is narrower than Delete Browsing Data in settings. It targets the current site’s data instead of the whole browser. |
Global Setting or Site Control?
Use the global settings when:
-
many sites are affected
-
you want a default privacy policy for all browsing
-
you want automatic cleanup behavior
Use the site panel when:
-
only one site is broken
-
one site needs a different permission decision
-
you want to clear data for one site only
Tips
-
If one site breaks, try the site-level tracking protection toggle before lowering protection everywhere
-
If login loops or stale sessions happen, clear only that site’s data first
-
If a permission looks wrong, set it back to Ask so the site can request it again later
-
Use Data Management for browser-wide cleanup and Site Permissions for the broader permission model
