Consentful adds a cookie consent banner to your WordPress site that blocks tracking scripts until visitors agree and tells Google what they chose through Consent Mode v2.<\/p>\n\n
You design the banner in wp-admin. When you publish, the plugin loads the banner script, which ships inside the plugin, on your site with your settings.<\/p>\n\n
Everything in this plugin works without an account, a license key or a time limit. There is no activation step, and the plugin never contacts a Consentful server.<\/p>\n\n
Consentful Pro is a separate add-on plugin, sold and downloaded from consentful.theplugins.co<\/a>. It is not part of this plugin and is not needed to use it. It adds every layout and theme, geo-targeting (automatic opt-in or opt-out by region), a preference center with per-service toggles, multiple languages, A\/B consent-rate testing, consent insights, a cookie- and privacy-policy generator and a WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility check.<\/p>\n\n Consentful is an independent product of The Plugins Company. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google, Meta or Hotjar.<\/p>\n\n This plugin does not connect to any Consentful service. The banner script, its images and its language files are included in the plugin and served from your own site. Nothing is loaded from a CDN.<\/p>\n\n If you enter a Google tag ID (for example a GA4 measurement ID) in the plugin's Consent Mode settings, the banner loads Google's tag script for you. It stays blocked until the visitor allows the matching cookie category. With no tag ID set, nothing is loaded from Google.<\/p>\n\n Consentful blocks and unblocks the third-party scripts you<\/strong> list in the plugin (for example Google Analytics or Meta Pixel). Those scripts load from their own providers only after a visitor allows their category, and those providers' terms apply. The plugin's list of known trackers only fills in a script address and a privacy-policy link when you pick one. It loads nothing by itself.<\/p>\n\n The admin screen ( Bundled fonts: Plus Jakarta Sans and JetBrains Mono (SIL Open Font License 1.1), Material Symbols (Apache License 2.0).<\/p>\n\n\n Yes. The plugin is free and fully functional, with no account, license key or time limit.
