Pressidium Cookie Consent


It is very easy to customize and developer friendly.



I was thinking of using the vanilla-cookieconsent library directly but I found that someone had already created a WordPress plugin based on that library which saved me a lot of work.



I noticed one issue and the developers very quickly fixed it after I reported it.


Excellent


I was quite frustrated from other plugins. I was planning create my own plugin with vanilla-cookieconsent. That was my last search before starting with development.



THANK YOU!


just my dreams come true


After checking out CookieYes, Complianz, CookieBot etc etc. I luckily found this plugin!



Lightweight, open source, non invasive, non locking-- what a breath of fresh air.



A big thank you to the devs. This is how plugins should be written. 



I'd happily donate for this plugin.


Great!


Tried so many cookie consent solutions over the years and so glad I have settled on this one now. Looks really nice and full-featured. I like not having to rely on some third-party hosted consent solution. Many thanks for your hard work.


Fantastic

<h4>NOTE: INSTALLING THIS PLUGIN ALONE DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SITE GDPR AND CCPA COMPLIANT. SINCE EACH SITE USES DIFFERENT COOKIES, YOU NEED TO ENSURE YOU HAVE THE NECESSARY CONFIGURATIONS IN PLACE WITH A SUPPORTING COOKIE NOTICE.</h4>


CookieYes – Cookie Banner for Cookie Consent (Easy to setup GDPR/CCPA Compliant Cookie Notice)

This used to be a great plugin, really. Now with the "new version" (it's actually a new plugin), you can use the plugin for free only once (on one website) in your lifetime. Unless you want to create a new account for each website you manage. This is more of a TRIAL than a functional plugin.
I am sorry, I really rarely give bad reviews, but if you ask me, this plugin doesn't deserve to be on wordpress.org anymore.
I hope you will fix it.

Disappointing

Perfect


I have tried almost all of the plugins that exist for GDPR, I used to use a different one .... but it was really off with the cookies it claimed that it found on the site, This one does a great job, and I have switched all the sites i maintain to this one. keep up the great work


The Best


it's very easy to use and powerfull to configure


Easy and usefull, good plugin


Easy to use. It does perfect job for my use. 



i just wish if I could also translate the cookie settings pop up window, 'Necessary', Functional', 'Analytics', so on... parts. Then it's perfect. 


Best Cookie plugin i ever seen.


Cool plugin to quickly add the super annoying banner on your website before you can read the content. Does as expected.


Does what I expected

Great Plugin


Was quite easy to set the plugin up, really nice to have the option to enable cookies only on acceptance. I really reccomend this plugin. 


Easy setup and effective

Works great


Fácil de instalar/configurar e rápido para usar!


Muito bom!


When I use this plugin it takes 15 speed points from the site, it's terrible


Page speed is awful


it works as it should and has caused me no recent issues 


Great plug in

Great plugin


Just what plugins should be about. Simple way to solve rather complex things and working out of the box. Much better then competitors.


Easier to use and works splendidly

Easily set up cookie banner or notice in WordPress, and policy pages for compliance with global cookie laws (GDPR, DSGVO, RGPD, CCPA/CPRA, etc).
