consentmanager Cookie Banner for Cookie Consent (Google Consent Mode and GDPR compliant Cookie Notice)

Great tool

First of all, the plugin works.

BUT...

Coding standards? Not existing.

Security? Who cares, we just save directly from $_POST without any sanitization.

Writing a 5* review for your own plugin? Yeah, absolutely what everyone should do... at least they don't hide it.

Extremely poorly written code

The consentmanager Cookie Banner and Cookie Notice allows you to easily collect cookie consent from your website visitors, ensuring GDPR compliance.
