FAQ

Does this plugin block cookies automatically?

No, this plugin displays a consent banner to inform users about cookie usage. YouÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll need to implement cookie blocking logic based on user consent in your custom code or use additional plugins. The plugin provides the window.cookievjConsent JavaScript variable and PHP $_COOKIE['cookievj_cookie_consent'] to check consent status.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

This plugin provides the essential tools to display a cookie consent banner and obtain user consent, which is a key requirement for GDPR compliance. However, full GDPR compliance depends on your entire website setup, including how you handle data collection, storage, and processing. Please consult with a legal professional for complete compliance guidance.

Can I customize the banner design?

Yes! You can customize:
* Background color (with color picker)
* Button color (with color picker)
* Banner position (bottom full width, bottom left, bottom right)
* All text content (message, button labels)
* Banner message supports HTML for links and formatting

Can I translate the plugin?

Yes! The plugin is fully translation-ready. All user-facing strings are wrapped in translation functions. You can translate it using:
* WordPress.org translation system
* Loco Translate plugin
* WPML
* Polylang
* Poedit with the included .pot file

How does Google Tag Manager integration work?

When you add your GTM container ID in settings, the plugin will:
1. Wait for user consent before loading GTM
2. Load the GTM script only after the user clicks “Accept”
3. Push consent events to the dataLayer
4. Make consent status available via window.cookievjConsent

This ensures compliance with privacy regulations by preventing tracking before consent.

Where do I find my GTM container ID?

  1. Log in to Google Tag Manager
  2. Select your container
  3. Find the container ID (format: GTM-XXXXXXX) in:
    • Top navigation bar (next to container name)
    • Installation code snippet
    • Container settings

Can I use GTM without showing the cookie banner?

No, for compliance reasons, the GTM script will only load after explicit user consent when the cookie banner is enabled. This is a core privacy feature to ensure youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re not tracking users without their permission.

Does this work with Google Consent Mode?

Yes, the plugin is compatible with Google Consent Mode v2. The consent status is available via JavaScript and dataLayer events, allowing you to configure consent mode settings in your GTM container based on user choices.

Will this slow down my website?

No. CookieVJ is extremely lightweight:
* Minified JavaScript: < 5KB
* No jQuery dependency
* Loads asynchronously
* Minimal CSS
* No external requests (except optional GeoIP)

Is there a way to reset user consent for testing?

Yes, delete the cookievj_cookie_consent cookie from your browserÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s developer tools (Application/Storage tab) or use an incognito window for testing.

Does it track users who reject cookies?

No. When users click “Reject,” only their rejection choice is stored in a cookie. No tracking scripts (including GTM) are loaded, and no analytics data is collected.
