    Yesterday I found that Google Analytics has not recorded any EU or UK visitors to my UK website since 1st April 2024. This is because my website was not setting the consent variables.

    var consentParameters = { 'ad_personalization': 'granted', 'ad_storage': 'granted', 'ad_user_data': 'granted', 'analytics_storage': 'granted' };

    gtag('consent', 'update', consentParameters);

    I am keen to fix this issue and also get the enhanced analytics provided by your product. I am now sadly familiar with Google’s consent architecture.

    • please update your documentation to explain exactly what “Enable Google Consent Mode” does and how this effects the recording of visitors from the EU or UK to your customers’ websites in Google Analytics.

    I realise that this is a nasty issue and I thank you for writing this plugin. It seems that your WooCommerce competitor has failed to adapt to this consent issue so you have an opportunity to gain on them.
