Hi, is possible to add the “Accept necessary” cookies only button with accepting only the necessary cookies, instead of Accep All..? What is the diffence betwen Accept All [cookie_accept_all] and Accept [cookie_button] ..?? Thanks for your answer.

Hi Matus,
[cookie_button] saves the default/current state of all categories. ie if a category is set in the disabled state by default and the user clicks the [cookie_button] button, the disabled state is saved.
Whereas the [cookie_accept_all] button enables all categories, regardless of their current or default state.
