How to manually place cookie

@juergen Schulze – Good question, will get a doc up for that asap.

In any case all you need to do is set the correct cookie when the form is submitted. You can also do it on the thank you page as well which may be easier.

Try adding this, though you will need admin editing priveleges to add scripts to your content editor text tab:

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
    jQuery.pm_cookie(
        cookie_name, // The cookie name that is set to manual.
        true, // Setting a cookie value of true.
        '10 years', // Plain english time frame.
        '/' // Cookie path of / means site wide.
    );
});
</script>

Hope that helps.

GREAT
I was able to implement it into my own site white plugin to use with a custom short code.
Works like a charm. That was very helpful of you.

Here is my code for others to use. Just place it in your custom functions.php

// shortcode set a cookie
add_shortcode('xxx_set_cookie', 'xxx_set_cookie');
function xxx_set_cookie($atts){

    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'cookiename' => '',
    ), $atts );

    print '
	<!-- set a cookie start -->
	<script type="text/javascript">

	jQuery(document).ready(function () {
		jQuery.pm_cookie(
			\''.$atts["cookiename"].'\', // The cookie name that is set to manual.
			true, // Setting a cookie value of true.
			\'10 years\', // Plain english time frame.
			\'/\' // Cookie path of / means site wide.
		);
	});	

	</script>
    <!-- set a cookie end -->
	';
}

Now you can place/set a cookie with a shortcode

[xxx_set_cookie cookiename="popmake-auto-open-xxx"]

Maybe you can give me a example on how to delete that cookie again?
I would place it in the goodbye page when someone unsubscribes from my newsletter.

@juergen Schulze – Instead, why don’t we move this to the proper place ;).

Since you have already done the work for us why not get the credit? I suggest adding an issue to our public github and submitting a pull request.

Lot to discuss in terms of how it is set up to both be simple to remember / use, but also flexible enough to extend & be future proofed.

In any case if you submit this there I will make sure to mention it in the changelogs. Lot of other stuff you could fix / work on too ??

Also forgot to add, it will fit in nicely with some new JS APIs we are working on.

Check out this reusable example we created for our new examples site. The button clears the cookie.

As for deleting cookies it is $.pm_remove_cookie(‘cookie-name’);

You should be able to access global versions of those functions as well ie !($.) just pm_cookie & pm_remove_cookie(‘cookie-name’);

This means you can add them to a onclick=”pm_remove_cookie(‘cookie-name’);” or href=”javascript:pm_remove_cookie(‘cookie-name’);” as well.

Hope that helps.

pm_remove_cookie just gives me

Uncaught ReferenceError: pm_remove_cookie is not defined

@juergen Schulze – Likely calling it before its available. Try it via .ready(). If not I will have to look into why not.

I think I know why it is not working.
wp-content/plugins/popup-maker/assets/js/site.js?defer&ver=1.4.15
is missing.
Somehow the “Thank you page” is loading it, but the “Good bye” page is not.
How can I manually force the script to be loaded?
What is the used slag with wp_enqueue_script?

@juergen Schulze – This should help: https://github.com/PopupMaker/Popup-Maker/blob/master/includes/scripts.php#L296

define( 'POPMAKE_FORCE_SCRIPTS', true );

Please take a moment to click that it Works and to rate and review the plugin or support.

No, does not work.
Don’t you have a code with
wp_enqueue_script(‘something’)
J

@juergen Schulze – Correct it is called based on popups loaded generally. If you don’t have any set to load on a page then by default the JS & CSS don’t load. You are trying to force them on so adding the above constant will do just that, forces it to ignore our check before loading JS.

See the line I linked for more info. If that is defined it calls our enqueue function.

Hope that helps.
