<h4>🍪 What Cookie Consent Does</h4>
<h4>Scans your site for cookies.</h4>
<p>Cookie Consent detects cookies by loading your pages in a full headless browser (Chromium), the same way a real visitor experiences your site. This catches cookies set by JavaScript execution, third-party embeds, analytics snippets, and dynamically loaded content that simpler HTTP-based scanners often miss. Detected cookies are automatically categorized into Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, Functional, or Uncategorized. You can scan your homepage, crawl your full site, or specify custom URLs. Results merge into your cookie manager without overwriting any manual edits.</p>
<h4>Blocks scripts until consent is given.</h4>
<p>In GDPR (opt-in) mode, non-essential scripts don’t execute until the visitor consents to the relevant category. This applies to analytics scripts, advertising pixels, tracking tags, and any other third-party script that sets non-essential cookies. Cookie Consent intercepts both WordPress-enqueued scripts and inline scripts, modifying them to wait for consent before firing. Essential cookies, like those used for login sessions, shopping carts, and basic site functionality, are never blocked. In CCPA (opt-out) mode, scripts load by default and visitors can choose to opt out of specific categories.</p>
<h4>Displays a customizable consent banner.</h4>
<p>Visitors see a cookie banner with clear options to accept, reject, or manage preferences by category. The banner, preferences dialog, and revisit button are all customizable including layout, position, colors, text, button styles, and border radius. A live preview shows you what visitors will see as you make changes.</p>
<h4>Logs every consent decision.</h4>
<p>Each time a visitor makes a choice, Cookie Consent records the decision type (accept all, reject all, or custom), the specific category preferences, and a timestamp. These records create an audit trail you can reference if compliance questions arise.</p>
<h4>Keeps everything in one place.</h4>
<p>Cookie list, scan results, script rules, consent logs, banner design, and compliance settings, all in one admin area. No separate platform to sign up for, no external app to connect, no additional accounts to manage.</p>
<h4>⚙️ Setup</h4>
<p>A guided wizard gets your banner live in three steps:<br />
1. <strong>Choose your compliance model</strong> – Select GDPR (opt-in) or CCPA (opt-out) based on your audience and the regulations that apply to your site.<br />
2. <strong>Configure your banner</strong> – Pick a layout, adjust colors and text, and preview what visitors will see.<br />
3. <strong>Scan your site</strong> – Cookie Consent visits your pages with a real browser, finds active cookies, and categorizes them. Your banner goes live with accurate cookie data from the start.</p>
<p>After setup, you can re-scan anytime, refine your design, recategorize cookies, and adjust script rules, all from the same dashboard.</p>
<h4>🎨 Banner Design & Customization</h4>
<p><strong>Banner Templates</strong>: Start with a pre-configured template during setup, then customize to fit your site. Templates are tailored to your selected compliance model (GDPR or CCPA) so the default structure, buttons, and consent flow match your requirements from the start.<br />
<strong>Layouts</strong>: Footer bar, slide-in, or center popup.<br />
<strong>Positioning</strong>: Control where and how the banner appears on the page.<br />
<strong>Styling</strong>: Background colors, text colors, button primary and secondary colors, border radius, and button sizing, enough control to match any brand or design.<br />
<strong>Content</strong>: Editable title, description, and button labels for the banner, preferences dialog, and revisit button. Write in your own voice.<br />
<strong>Preferences Dialog</strong>: When a visitor clicks Manage Preferences, they see a breakdown of each cookie category with descriptions and toggles. Necessary cookies are marked as always active. Visitors choose exactly which categories they\’re comfortable with.<br />
<strong>Revisit Consent Button</strong>: A persistent button visitors can click anytime to reopen the preferences dialog and change their choices.<br />
<strong>Responsive</strong>: Automatically adapts to desktop and mobile.<br />
<strong>Live Preview</strong>: Desktop and mobile preview with a device toggle. Updates in real time as you edit — no publishing and refreshing the front end.<br />
<strong>Elementor Editor Integration [Requires Elementor Pro]</strong>: Open the banner and preferences dialog in the Elementor visual editor. Drag-and-drop widgets, styling panels, and your full design system, the same workflow you use for the rest of your site.<br />
<strong>Cloud Templates [Requires Elementor Pro]</strong>: Save a finished banner design to your cloud library and deploy it across other sites in one click. Useful for agencies and freelancers managing multiple client sites with consistent branding.</p>
<h4>📋 Cookie & Script Management</h4>
<p><strong>Cookie Manager</strong>: A central dashboard showing every cookie on your site, organized by consent category. Each entry shows the cookie name, domain, category, duration, and a description field. Add cookies manually, edit any field, or delete entries you no longer need. Drag-and-drop cookies to reorder them within a category, the order you set here is the order visitors see in the preferences dialog.</p>
<p><strong>Category View</strong>: Categories display as expandable accordion sections: Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, Functional, and Uncategorized. Each shows a status badge: \”Always Active\” for Necessary, or an Active/Inactive toggle for other categories. Expand any section to see the individual cookies it contains.</p>
<p><strong>Scanning</strong>: Run a scan anytime with homepage only, full-site crawl, or custom URLs you specify. Include and exclude lists let you control exactly which pages get scanned. Only one scan runs at a time. New cookies are added automatically; existing manual edits are never overwritten. A progress indicator shows scan status in real time.</p>
<p><strong>Script Manager</strong>: Control how individual scripts behave, independent of their category\’s default rule. Three options per script:<br />
– <em>Do Not Block</em> – Script always loads, bypassing the consent engine. Use for scripts you\’ve verified as essential but that aren\’t automatically detected as Necessary.<br />
– <em>Block Until Consent</em> – Script waits until the visitor consents to its assigned category. This is the default for non-essential scripts in GDPR mode.<br />
– <em>Always Block</em> – Script never loads under any circumstances. Use for scripts you want permanently disabled.</p>
<p><strong>Script Input</strong>: Add scripts by URL or paste inline code directly. Cookie Consent matches scripts using URL comparison or normalized snippet hashing.</p>
<p><strong>Inline Script Blocking</strong>: An optional output buffering method catches inline and hardcoded scripts that aren\’t loaded through the standard enqueue system. Toggle it off from Advanced Settings if you want to manage inline scripts manually or minimize server-side processing.</p>
<p><strong>Developer Hooks</strong>: Advanced users and agencies can hook into the blocking engine via an MU-plugin snippet to delay dynamically injected scripts, including those created by page builders or loaded after DOM ready.</p>
<p><strong>Scan History</strong>: A table of past scans showing date (UTC), status (success/failed), URLs scanned, categories found, and total cookies detected.</p>
<p>= 🔒 Compliance Settings=<br />
<strong>GDPR (Opt-in)</strong>: Non-essential scripts are blocked by default. The banner presents three options: Accept All, Reject All, and Manage Preferences. Visitors who open the preferences dialog see each cookie category with a description and a toggle. Necessary cookies are labeled \”Always Active\” with no toggle, they can\’t be disabled. Consent must be given before Analytics, Marketing, or Functional scripts execute.</p>
<p><strong>CCPA (Opt-out)</strong>: All scripts load by default. The banner includes a Do Not Sell My Data option. Visitors who opt out trigger blocking of Marketing category scripts. Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals sent by the visitor\’s browser are detected and respected automatically.</p>
<p><strong>Consent Expiration</strong>: Set how many days a visitor\’s choice is remembered (1–365 days, default 180). When the period expires, the banner reappears and the visitor is prompted to choose again. Until expiration, the previous choice is respected and the banner stays hidden.</p>
<p><strong>Banner Activation</strong>: A global toggle to enable or disable the cookie banner.</p>
