What information does the consent log store and where is it stored?
How can I block a script that is not supported by your Script Blocker?
I have made some changes to the settings/cookie bar text/theme, but they are not shown in the front end. How can I fix it?
Cookie scanner returns 0 cookies as result. What can I do to fix it?

How long does the user consent is saved before the bar is shown again?

Hi there,
I am unable to find the ‘cookie category’ on the menu dropdown on a multi-region WordPress installation. I am instead given two categories of ‘non-necessary’ and necessary.
Please can you advise!

Hi Adam,
Greetings from Webtoffee!
Are you sure you are using our latest version? If so please go to the cookie scanner and check if you are having a migrate button. Click on the migrate button to have a cookie category menu in the list.

Hi there,
How can I ensure the cookie bar is included early in the DOM – as a keyboard user, the user is having to tab through the entire website before they can choose their cookie preferences and ideally this would be the first thing they interact with on entering the site.
Thanks

Hi,
Greetings From Webtoffee!
We are trying to improve the accessibility option in our plugin. The tab keys are working currently as you explained. We will bring an update to it in the future. This has been added to our backlogs.

I’m having a problem with the [cookie_settings] shortcode on our polylang-enabled site. On German-language pages [cookie_settings] displays a link/button to the settings panel as expected. On English-language pages however, [cookie_settings] displays a link/button to that brings up a popup with the privacy_overview_content message. The cookie consent bar is showing the same behaviour.

Hi @Hagen,
As we checked your site, We noticed that you have not completed the translation for cookies and cookie categories. So, please go to GDPR Cookie Consent > Cookie List and translate cookies. Similarly, go to the Cookie Category and translate categories.

When starting the cookie scanner I entered a wrong mail address for registering with CookieYes and I can’t find a way to correct it. I searched the database to no avail. Where is this setting hidden?

I found it by doing a search across the whole database… it’s option_name wt_cli_cookieyes_options in the table wp_options. I corrected the mail address there and the scan has alreayd finished :-). Thanks for this great and very flexible plugin, it’s really easy to use and configure and has exactly the options I need.

Hi, I used to have a site in a development environment and have recently changed the URL to the live one. However, when I try to run the cookie scanner, it comes back as saying “your report for is ready” …
I did a full search for the old url on the database and go no hits. I also disconnected and connected the cookie scanner , without results.
Any idea how to change this?
Tks, Vasco

The cookie bar does not seem to appear when clicking the shortcode link, nor seem the shortcodes to work below. What could be the reason?

Hi. I have been looking, but cannot find a way to export my settings so that all my websites have the same look and layout. Is this possible? I am sorry if I missed it.

Hi, my website in English and I have only one page in French. How can I change the language of the cookie bar in this single page without installing multilingual plugin?

If a user does not interact with the plugin i.e. does not accept or reject the footer version of the popup. Will the user’s data still be collected by Google Analytics/Google Tag Manager etc… i.e. will they only stop being tracked if they explicitly choose not to be tracked?
Mark

Hi Craig,
With the right configuration, the Ga/Gtag tracking will be done only after explicit consent is given. If they ignore the banner, they won’t be tracked.

Hi Webtoffee,
Great looking plugin.
I am using the free version and was wondering if there is a limit to how many “Category default states” you can set to ENABLED. As I have two set to ENABLED and have purged my WordPress sites cache and also Google Chromes browser cache (including all cookies) yet they are still showing as Disabled when I use on my site.
Please advise.
Kind Regards
Julian

Hi Julian,
There are no such limitations in the plugin. Kindly check if you caching at server side and clear accordingly.

Hi, I can’t find anything that points out the difference between your free and paid versions of GDPR Cookie Consent. Where can I find that information?
Mark

Hi Neil,
You can find the premium version features listed in both the premium and free version product pages. We are sorry that we don’t have a comparison list ready for you.

Hi Mark,
Is there a limit to the number of pages that the free version scans? When I installed it, it only came up with about 16 cookies on my site, whereas another service found 38. I know that my site has more than 100 subpages, so could that be the problem and would the Premium version solve that?

Hi Mark, I haven’t had a reply to my question above. Are you able to answer it for me?

Hi
The GDPR seem to only work on mobile use but not when using a PC?
Please advice?
Thanks

Hi Ade,
Our GDPR plugin will indeed work on both mobile and desktop versions. Please check in an incognito window if you have clicked accept once on the banner. If issue persists, please reach us via the support page.

Hi Mark,
I can also confirm that it does *not* seem to work in the Chrome browser on a desktop. Whereas it does work on a mobile device. PC has every option DISABLED and on mobile device is shows correctly with both ENABLED and DISABLED set.
Kind Regards,
Julian

Hi Julian,
As such it is surely a caching issue. Please check as mentioned in the previous comment.

Hello, I just tried this plugin for cookie. I would like to ask how to know I have already accepted the cookie or how to know the cookie bar is shown or not.

Hi Wong,
If you are using Chrome, open developer console > go to applications tab > Click on Cookies and select you site domain name. Please check if you have set a cookie named ‘viewed_cookie_policy’ and if the value is yes, you have clicked accept. If you haven’t yet accepted or rejected, there won’t be such a cookie present. You can check the site again by opening it in private window.
