ChangelogCookie consent banner is often used in websites to collect consent from the visitors regarding the use of cookies. There may have been instances whereupon accepting/rejecting, the cookie banner disappears and you want to bring it back again on your website. This is where the revisit consent comes into the picture.
Revisit consent will allow the visitors to view/edit/revoke their prior preferences. In the GDPR cookie consent plugin, this can be done via a widget and/or a shortcode. A small privacy widget is automatically displayed at the footer of your website if the widget option is enabled.
Revisit Consent
To manage the revisit consent for the cookie notice bar, follow the steps below:
- Install and activate the GDPR Cookie consent plugin.
- From the dashboard navigate to the Settings page. The settings window consists of several options to manage the look and feel of the cookie notice bar.
- Navigate to the Customise Cookie Bar tab, then, click on the Revisit consent as shown below:
- By enabling the revisit consent, a small privacy widget is automatically displayed at the footer of your website.
You can also manually insert a link to manage consent by adding the shortcode: [wt_cli_manage_consent] to your website. - The Widget Position can be set to either left or right.
- Use the From left margin to position the widget. Enter a value in either pixel or percentage to specify the distance from the respective margin, to place the widget accordingly.
- The Title field allows you to customize the text on the widget. For instance, you can key in ‘Privacy and Cookie Policy’ as a title or whatever you may like.
Demo
The manage consent widget for the cookie notice bar can be viewed from the front end in the following manner:
Hide revisit consent tab
To hide the ‘Privacy and Cookie Policy’ tab, simply disable the revisit consent widget option from the settings as shown below.
On disabling the use of the revisit consent widget, the ‘Privacy and Cookie Policy’ tab which is usually shown instead of cookie notice after accepting consent will be made hidden from the users. However, proceeding further with the recorded consent taken before.

disabling “Use show again tab” in GDPR Cookie Consent v 1.9.3 does not hide “Privacy & Cookies Policy” tab. Any advice?

Hi,
Thank You for your answer.
I’ve done it as you said, however, after insert the shortcode only appears the message (Manage your consent) and its not clickable (there is no link inside it).
Please help me.
Thank you in advance,
Jadiel.

Hi,
Thank You for such a wonderful plugin!
I would like to add the Privacy & Cookies Policy tab on my footer (like a link), however, when I add the shortcode [user_consent_state] it appears the text “Your current state: Consent Accepted. Manage your consent.”
It should appear something (a link) like “Update Privacy & Cookies Policy”
How can I do that?
Please help me.
Thank ypu in advance,
Jadiel.

Hi Jadiel,
Please add below code snippet to your active theme’s function.php
function wt_cli_cookie_manage_custom( $atts ){
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
'title' => 'Manage consent',
'style' => ''
), $atts );
return "" . __( esc_html( $atts['title'], 'cookie-law-info') ) . "";
}
add_shortcode( 'wt_cli_manage_consent', 'wt_cli_cookie_manage_custom' );
Then you can use below short code.
[wt_cli_manage_consent title="Manage your consent"]

Hi Guys,
Do you have any solution for that?
I’ve also tried this short-code, however, it did not work either.
Thanks, Ana.
