WordPress.org

How can I test that the plugin is working?

Add the query parameter ?cctestmode=accept to accept all cookies regardless of settings. Add the query parameter ?cctestmode=decline to decline all cookies regardless of settings.

For example: http://www.mycompliantsite.com/mypage.html would become http://www.mycompliantsite.com/mypage.html?cctestmode=decline

By using the decline option, you can conduct a manual cookie audit on your site and hopefully see that no intrusive cookies are being set (remember to clear your cookies first).

Can I use my own 'privacy settings' link?

If you like, you can define your own links to the privacy settings dialog. Just create a link and add a class of cc-privacy-link.

<a href="#">Privacy settings</a>

You will probably want to use this in conjunction with the Hide Privacy Settings Tab option in 'Settings' -> 'Cookie Confirm'.

Who made this awesome script?

The original script was built by Skilltide and you can find more info here - http://silktide.com/cookieconsent. Fish Can't Whistle just turned it into a WordPress plugin.

How much does it cost to use this service?

Nothing! The good folks at Skilltide have made this a free project!
