cookiessafari
I'm having trouble logging in to a website in Safari, so I wanted to delete cookies for that one site. I went to Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data And searches for the site's name, but I see that the site is using cookies and local storage. I don't want to delete the local storage, just the cookies.
This is on Mac OS X 10.15.7 with Safari version 14.0 (15610.1.28.1.9, 15610)
In Safari, How can I delete just the cookies for a single site and leave the local data?
Saved forms and cookies are not the same thing. Cookies (for example) keep you logged in to a website, instead of having to re-log-in every time you visit. Saved forms are Safari's way of keeping text in a login form, so when you are logged out you don't need to enter your credentials again.
It sounds like you're talking about saved forms. To make sure this is working, go to Safari > Preferences > AutoFill and make sure "User names and passwords" is checked.
You can still see individual cookies using Safari in developer mode. Go to "Safari-->Preferences-->Advanced" and enable "Show Develop menu in menu bar". Navigate to the webpage that holds the cookie you are looking to remove. Go to Develop in the menu bar and "Show web inspector". On the left hand side there will be a folder "Cookies" that holds the data from that site. You can right click them and delete certain ones.

Visit the website, open the developer tools (option-cmd-i, enabled in Preferences → Advanced), choose the Storage tab, then Cookies in the sidebar, and for each cookie, select it in the list and press backspace.
