In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] The plugin broke after updating to the last version 5.1I’m sorry to read this. Unfortunately, I can’t see the screenshot.
Would you please uninstall and reinstall and let me know if the problem still exists?

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Uninstall is not clean ?Why do you think this is useful for me?
When my plugin will be removed via the admin panel, it won’t leave any traces behind.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Uninstall is not clean ?Hi Eric,
Do me a favour and check if you have a plugin called Cookie Law Info enabled. Disable it and see if the artefact disappears. Report back here.
The plugin itself definitely removes itself from the WordPress database but it will not remove any code that has been placed by another party.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] GDPR violationI get the concern about loading an external JavaScript file, especially since it’s coming through Cloudflare’s US-based proxy. But from a GDPR standpoint, there’s really no issue here.
Since summer 2023, the EU and US agreed on a new data transfer framework. Any US company that signs up to the Data Privacy Framework is considered to provide an adequate level of protection, making data transfers legal without extra red tape. Cloudflare is part of this and is also certified under the EU Cloud Code of Conduct, following Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and a Data Processing Addendum (DPA). In other words, they’ve already got the necessary safeguards in place to handle data properly under EU regulations.
As for the browser-update.org script, it’s purely functional – it just nudges users with outdated browsers to update for better security and performance. There’s no tracking or personal data collection going on, so embedding it directly doesn’t violate GDPR.
Bottom line: the current setup is fine under GDPR, but I’m happy to tweak things if there’s a real compliance issue I’ve missed.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Wrong notification givenNo clue and my crystal ball currently has MOT’d. 😉 Seriously, without knowing further details I can’t help.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Wrong notification givenHow am I supposed to know given the lack of details? Would be a good starting point to pass the URL of your website?
The plugin pulls the JavaScript from the creators of browser-update.org – you might want to pass your question to them as well.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Not working for meThis site is blown with JavaScript. Deactivate all plug-ins and switch to the standard theme to check if it’s working.

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Not working for meDoes the plug-in work in testing mode? If so, have you then tested with an outdated browser and set the detection of that browser to a lower version? What’s the outcome?

In reply to: [WP BrowserUpdate] Not working for meI don’t know why it ain’t working for you. My crystal ball gazing is limited currently. Waiting for new glasses…
Fun aside: if you don’t provide more details, there’s nothing I can do for you. A starting point could be to switch off all other plug-ins and try to narrow down the cause.
