    is it possible to execute the shortcode only under the condition that a cookie is set beforehand?
    i use elementor and have tried back and forth to put it into an html or shortcode element using an if condition like this one

    <script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    // überprüfe hier deine Bedingung
    if (document.cookie.indexOf('cmplz_preferences=allow') !== -1) {
        // Füge den Shortcode-Inhalt in das DOM ein
        var shortcodeContainer = document.getElementById('mwai_chatbot_v2');
        if (shortcodeContainer) {
            shortcodeContainer.innerHTML = [mwai_chatbot_v2];
        }
    }
});
</script>

    Hey @malorkan ! ??

    It might be easier to check for cookies and create a shortcode through the backend, as they are interpreted by WordPress. You could try something like this. ??

    function custom_cookie_chatbot_shortcode_callback($atts) {
    // Check if the cookie is set
    if (isset($_COOKIE['cmplz_preferences'])) {
        // Render the mwai_chatbot_v2 shortcode content here
        return do_shortcode('[mwai_chatbot_v2]');
    } else {
        // Optionally, you can provide a message or alternative content
        return 'Cookie not set, chatbot shortcode not rendered';
    }
}
add_shortcode('cookie_mwai_chatbot_v2', 'custom_cookie_chatbot_shortcode_callback');

    thanks for your quick reply. i had tried that but unfortunately the approach did not work. can you describe how you can activate the shortcode through the backend? that i only activate the chatbot under the cookie condition on individual pages
