@dan14,

You can style the cookie consent banner by overriding the CSS styling in your website’s own style sheet/CSS file. You can do this by using the CSS !important rule. For example, to change the font.

#CybotCookiebotDialog { font-family: Helvetica !important; }

Hi @giugeo85

I’ve just tested our own website with an iPhone 6+, and the banner displays fine. Which iPhone are you using, and what is your domain so that we can check?

@almadama

Congratulations with becoming compliant, and have a nice day! 🙂

@lauratraveler and @webby85x

By the way, if you are not using GA for marketing purposes (like remarketing), and you have set up your GA settings so that they are GDPR compliant, then you don’t need to mark up the script as “marketing”. Statistics should be sufficient.

Hi @lauratraveler and @webby85x

All online tracking taking place should be mentioned and prevented before the user consents.

Have a look at Implement Google Analytics using Gtag (Global Site Tag) to see if that doesn’t help you. Otherwise you’ll have to ask someone from Google if the collect pixel can be disabled, as we do not know how to do so at the moment.

Hi @lanxalot,

Do you have any in depth documentation for implementing the necessary code to switch individual cookies on and off? We get the gist but can’t find any detailed information or step by step instructions. We don’t know where to find the existing cookie code for various plugins or how to reformat the code to work with your plugin.

We have many articles on how to implement Cookiebot. Have a look at our knowledgebase.

Do we need to remove the cookie code from all existing plugins?

You don’t need to remove it. You have to mark it up as described in our help section step 3. However this is not a sustainable approach.

If we need to remove the cookie code from existing plugins, will we need to do this every time a plugin is updated?

Yes you will. That is why we encourage our users to ask the plugin developers if they are planning on becoming GDPR compliant, or if they would like to integrate with Cookiebot. Also, we have a github repository, where we “fix” different plugins, so that you don’t have to update the plugins manually. Maintaining this repository requires alot of resources, why is why we do not support alot of plugins at the moment.

What would you recommend is the easiest method to setup full cookie control using your plugin; it seems there is more than one method available?

It depends on the scenario, but normally you would have to tag up your cookie-setting script tags with cookiebots attributes, also explained in our help section.

Would you recommend using Google Tag Manager with your plugin to control and categorise cookies?

That is up to you. Cookiebot works with and without GTM. If you choose to use GTM, then don’t use our WP plugin. Have a look at our GTM article: Google Tag Manager deployment.

Do you think the process of categorising and controlling cookies will be completely automated in the near future?

At the moment it is automated, and we have a cookie researcher just for this. However, with all the cookies in the world, we can’t get to categorizing them all. You have the ability to categorize the cookies yourself: Unclassified cookies – how do I classify them manually?.

Hi @organu,

Thanks for reaching out!

Did you have a look at our articles on implementing prior consent?

What does ‘prior consent’ mean and how do I implement it?

Make sure you have enabled ‘prior consent’
