Pluging causing display problem with metaslider

Hi @webtoffee,

The cookie modal doesn’t need to load on REST calls so the best way would be to just bail on a rest call similarly to how you bail with !is_admin().

WP doesn’t have a convenient function to determine whether it’s a REST call when loading code fairly early, so it might be easiest to do add a function similar this answer on StackOverflow, then since you probably don’t need any code loading on REST calls, just add it to your plugin’s entry point. For example,

function run_cookie_law_info() {
	if (is_rest()) return;
	$plugin = new Cookie_Law_Info();
	$plugin->run();
}
run_cookie_law_info();

Hi @mbeerli,

We have analyzed this by installing both plugins in a dev site and have come up with a solution. Please use the below code snippet to your active theme’s functions.php. This would prevent the bar from appearing on metaslider edit pages.

function wt_disable_cookie_bar($cookiebar , $slug )
{	
	if( defined( 'REST_REQUEST' ) && REST_REQUEST )
	{
		$cookiebar = '';
	}
	return $cookiebar;
}
add_filter('cli_show_cookie_bar_only_on_selected_pages','wt_disable_cookie_bar',10,2);

Hope this helps.

Hi @webtoffee

Is it possible you can add this as a permanent fix to the plugin so users won’t have to add extra code to their site to fix the conflict?
