Can you revoke cookie access?

You are right, I think that this plugin was “perfect prior of the GDPR and it need some patches to be 100% GDPR compliant, I hope that this funcion will arrive in the short future, because this plugin has the big power to automatically lock many typf of plugins and htis is really great.

Done, in last release there’s a shortcode to use to revoke cookie acceptance!

great! how it works? how the users can revoke the cookie acceptance?

Works very well. Maybe another shortcut to delete *all* the cookies could be interestig. I’ve added a shortcode to do that. Really ugly… and I’m sorry but I’ve minified JS, but that is:

function deleteAllCookies() {
for (var e = document.cookie.split(“;”), o = 0; o < e.length; o++) {
var i = e[o],
n = i.indexOf(“=”),
t = n > -1 ? i.substr(0, n) : i;
document.cookie = t + “=; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT; path=/;domain=”, document.cookie = t + “=; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT; path=/;domain=” + location.hostname.replace(/^www\./i, “”)
}
}

Hello @webgrafia,

i tried the shortcode to reset the cookie preference but nothing happens. (Version 4.1.9)
this is the the page the button is implemented on: https://www.campushelfer.de/de/datenschutzbestimmungen/

The behavior i would expect is, that once i clicked on the button and the page is reloaded i get the cookie banner again and can choose again. Is this right?

Thank you and best regards

Simon

I found a way: find the reset-cookie.js file and add this:

document.cookie = “ginger-cookie=; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 UTC; path=/;”;

right after the function delete_cookie(name, url) {

(don’t delete anything, just add the string)

Good luck ??

Hey @nuovaera,

thank you for your code! There was just a little error in it. You used the wrong tokens.
That’s how the code is right and working:

function delete_cookie(name, url) {
	document.cookie = "ginger-cookie=; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 UTC; path=/;";
    document.cookie = name + '=;expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT;';
    if(typeof url !== 'undefined'){
        window.location.href = url;
    }else{
        location.reload();
    }
}

EDIT: When reloading on the same page, the cookie banner didn’t appear all the time. For now i add a string to the reload url [ginger_reset_cookie text=”Reset der Cookie-Einstellungen ” redirect_url=”MYURL/datenschutzbestimmungen/?ginger-reload“]
