WordPress
The OpenCookies plugin.
Nothing to enter: on activation, the plugin creates your site’s banner and loads it first in the header of every page.
Installation
- Download the plugin (.zip) then, in WordPress: Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, and activate it. That’s all: the banner is created and active.
- Optional: Settings > OpenCookies > “Customize my banner” to choose your e-mail and edit the texts and colors.
- In your OpenCookies account, Tests tab: run a test to check that nothing loads before the choice.
What the plugin does
- Adds the banner line at the very top of
<head>, before the other plugins. - Automatically marks, before each page is sent, the tracking tags written by the theme or extensions (measurement, advertising, social networks, video): nothing loads before the visitor’s consent, with nothing to configure.
- Stores nothing but the site key. The text, colors and measurement mode are set in your account.
Scripts added by hand in a theme or a “custom code” extension are also blocked by the banner, but only if it loads before them: this is the case with this plugin.
