Settings

Tab: Cookies groups

The main idea is to create groups of cookies with JS scripts that you want to run on your website.

Required

When turned on users cannot disable these groups in Manage cookies component and scripts will be always executed.

Default enabled

Scripts in these groups will run without explicit user concent but can be disabled by user (in Manage cookies component).

Be careful not to violate your local laws!

Scripts

You can add one or more scripts to selected group

Custom JS code or files

You can add your own JS code and/or files to be executed when a cookies group is allowed (or required).

You can optionally limit scripts execution to production mode.

Run only in production

Script wil be executed only in production environment.

Disable

This scripts will never be executed

Run on specific pages

You can limit scripts execution to specific pages URLs.

Tab: Cookies bar

You can edit title and content of cookies bar.

If you want, you can select from pre-defined CSS styles.

Buttons

You can add one or more buttons to your cookies bar.

Allow all cookies

When turned on, click on this button will set all cookies groups enabled.

Usefull for "Allow all" button on Cookies bar.

Note: Users can change cookies settings later on CMS page with Manage cookies component (like /gdpr) if you create one.

Open modal window

When turned on, click on this button open modal window with list of cookies group.

Currently supported only for Boostrap 3 UI style (can be set on tab Settings).

Tab: Manage cookies

Just add title and content and those will be shown above cookies groups listing in Manage cookies component.

Tab: Settings

Few general settings to be set.

Cookies expiration

Number of days for cookies to live in browser.

UI style

Change formating of output HTML code.

Tab: Import

You can import settings presets from Media your own path or default plugin preset (if you leave all empty).

You have to use YAML format.

Note: Try Export first to get idea of an import file structure.

Tab: Export

You can export current settings data to configuration file and use it as a backup or template for other sites.

Components

Cookies bar

Should be used in your Layouts or Pages.

Hide Cookies bar

If you need to hide Cookies bar on specific Page or Layout, you can use View Bag on your Page this way:

[viewBag]
hideCookiesBar = 1

Manage cookies

Put this component to your page with details about privacy (like /gdpr or /cookies).

Manage cookies component can be also added as a snippet to Static Page

Users will be able to change cookies settings.

HOWTO

With component Cookies bar or Manage cookies you can access cookies settings in your Twig code like this:

{% if sgCookies.necessary %}
 ...
{% endif %}

  • Found the plugin useful on 16 Jul, 2020

    It's already a must have plugin! The ability to manage cookies' categories independently is such a great feature.

    Working on an implementation using TailwindCSS, I was afraid about the support but really well-surprised of the good design of the code (at least the components partial, didn't look yet the PHP code :) ).

    I will share my TwCSS implementation in this comment in few days for those who want.

    Thanks Jan Vince for the work!
